Correction to: Malar J (2019) 18:221 10.1186/s12936-019-2852-5

Following publication of the original article [1], the authors advised of two errors present in the article: one concerning two author names and the other missing funding details.

The errors are:

The named authors of ‘Jetsumon Prachumsri’ and ‘Kirakorn Kirabittir’ are incorrect and should read respectively as:

‘Jetsumon Sattabongkot’ and ‘Kirakorn Kiattibutr’

Under the ‘Study area’ sub-section of the ‘Methods’ section, this sentence is missing funding details:

“As part of a concurrent longitudinal study in the area, prevalence by microscopy in the three villages was found to be 0.71%, 0.89% and 0.27% in January, May and November 2016, respectively (Fig. 1); all infections were caused by Plasmodium vivax.”

However, the sentence should read as:

“As part of a concurrent longitudinal study in the area from Mahidol University (ICEMR and D43 funded Projects U19AI0819672 and D43TW006571), prevalence by microscopy in the three villages was found to be 0.71%, 0.89% and 0.27% in January, May and November 2016, respectively (Fig. 1); all infections were caused by Plasmodium vivax.”

The authors apologize for these errors.
