Following publication of the original article [1], it was brought to our attention that Tamirat Gebru Woldearegai had not been added to the author list. The data published in this manuscript came from work carried out within the framework of a consortium of which Tamirat Gebru Woldearegai was a member, and so TGW should be included in the author list.

The author list has been corrected in the original article and the updated author list may be found in this correction. In addition, in relation to this correction, the Author Contributions statement has been updated as follows:

“JCDA performed clinical investigation, formal analysis, and wrote the original draft. JRE, YJH, JFZ and BRA performed clinical investigations. MN wrote the original draft of the laboratory methods. AM performed the study area map (Fig. 1). BL validated the statistical analysis. MPG supervised the study conduct. TGW, BM and AAA conceptualized the study design, and supervised the study conduct. All authors contributed to the writing of the manuscript. All authors read and approved the final manuscript.”

The authors apologize for any inconvenience caused.
