We apologize for the mistake which slipped through all careful reading and re-reading: it must, correctly, read throughout the entire paper ... foscarnet i.v. 60 mg per kg bodyweight (b.w.), t.i.d.

It is correct that 40 mg/kg b.w. is the recommended daily dose (Chilukuri and Rosen 2011), but in view of the dramatic clinical and neuro-imaging course we opted for an increased dose carefully monitoring for side effects.
