The authors wish to make the following correction to Table 1 of this paper [1]:
The DENV 1–4 DU5 MGB2017 real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-rtPCR) assay should state that it is designed in the Capsid peptide coding region under the genome region column, and not the 3’UTR.
This change has no material impact upon the conclusions of our paper. The authors would like to apologize for any inconvenience caused to the readers by this change.
