In the report, "Transmission of Hepatitis C Virus Through Transplanted Organs and Tissue — Kentucky and Massachusetts, 2011," errors occurred. On page 1698, in the first full paragraph, the last sentence should read, "Liver function tests continued to be elevated, and the HCV NAT result from a specimen received by the hospital laboratory on September 19 and reported September 20 was positive." In the second full paragraph, the clause following the semicolon should read, "the HCV NAT result from a specimen received by the hospital laboratory on September 21 and reported September 26 was positive."
Similarly, on page 1699, the Figure should indicate that the first kidney recipient's specimen was received by the hospital laboratory on September 19, and the positive HCV NAT result was reported on September 20. The Figure also should indicate that the second kidney recipient's specimen was received by the hospital laboratory on September 21, and the positive HCV NAT result was reported on September 26.
