Following the publication of the Review by Ameneh Khatami and Andrew J Pollard, ‘The epidemiology of meningococcal disease and the impact of vaccines’, published in the March 2010 issue of Expert Review of Vaccines (Expert Rev. Vaccines 9[3], 285–298 [2010]), it has been brought to our attention that the following Financial & competing interests disclosure on page 293 was incorrectly printed as:
