Text Correction
There were two factual errors in the original publication of our manuscript [1] entitled, “The Global Emergence of Human Babesiosis”. Babesia microti is not transmitted transovarially. Babesia crassa-like agent has been found in I. persulcatus ticks in China rather than I. scapularis ticks. Several minor spelling and capitalization errors also were identified.
The authors apologize for any inconvenience caused and state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
