Hellewell J, Abbott S, Gimma A, et al. Feasibility of controlling COVID-19 outbreaks by isolation of cases and contacts. Lancet Glob Health 2020, published online Feb 28; https://doi.org/10.1016/S2214-109X(20)30074-7—In the table of this Article, the row titled “Overdispersion in R ₀ (SARS-like, influenza-like)”, should have read “Overdispersion in R ₀ (SARS-like)”. In the Transmission scenarios section of the Methods, in the first sentence, R ₀ and transmission before symptom onset should have been listed as separate items. In figure legend 2A, the line marks the median, not the mean. In figure 2C, the key was incorrect: the box representing <1% should have been orange, and the box representing 30% should have been purple. These corrections have been made as of March 5, 2020.
