Correction to: Malar J (2020) 19:4 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12936-019-3091-5

Following publication of the original article [1], it was brought to the authors’ attention that one of the names in the author list had been provided with the incorrect spelling.

Namely, ‘Mehul Dhorda’ had been incorrectly spelled as ‘Mehul Dorda’.

The error has since been corrected in the original article.

The authors apologize for any inconvenience caused.
