Erratum to: Physician reported incidence of early and late Lyme borreliosis
After the publication of this work 1], we noticed an error in the percentages of “Fig. 1 Lyme borreliosis manifestations as a proportion of all Lyme-related diagnoses, by
type of physicianâ€. The percentages of the first horizontal bar “General Practitioner
(adjusted)†should be: 90.9 % erythema migrans (instead of 92 %), 5.3 % disseminated
Lyme borreliosis, and 3.8Â % persisting symptoms attributed to Lyme borreliosis (instead
of 3Â %).

type of physician
Consequently, the corresponding sentence in the results section should be: “After
adjusting, erythema migrans represented 90.9Â % of the clinical diagnoses for Lyme
borreliosis reported by the GP, while 5.3Â % of the diagnoses concerned disseminated
Lyme borreliosis, and 3.8Â % concerned persisting symptoms attributed to Lyme borreliosis
(see Fig. 1)â€.
And the corresponding sentence in the discussion section should be: “Considering all
GP-reported Lyme borreliosis, 5.3Â % of the diagnoses concerned disseminated Lyme borreliosis,
and 3.8 % concerned persisting symptoms attributed to Lyme borreliosis (see Fig. 1).â€
