The third bullet under the “What did the researchers do and find?” section of the Author Summary is incorrect. The publisher apologizes for this error.
The correct text is: Across all meta-analyzed studies, when Ag-RDTs were performed according to manufacturers’ recommendations, they showed a sensitivity of 76.3% (95% CI 73.1% to 79.2%), with LumiraDx (sensitivity 88.2% [95% CI 59.0% to 97.5%]) and, of the instrument-free Ag-RDTs, Standard Q nasal (80.2% sensitivity [95% CI 70.3% to 87.4%]) performing best.
