The authors would like to make a correction to their letter published in the October 2020 issue of AnnalsATS (1). The authors reported an adjusted odds ratio (OR) of 1.51 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.03–1.05) for the association between Black race and hospitalization among SARS-CoV-2 patients. This value is incorrectly listed in a table and text, and the correct value for this adjusted OR for the association between Black race and hospitalization among SARS-CoV-2 patients in the study is 3.17 (95% CI, 1.86–5.43). For the convenience of our readers, AnnalsATS is replacing the online version of the article with a corrected version.
