In Table 2, the values in the second column are incorrect. All values should be represented in the thousands. Please see the corrected Table 2 here.

There are errors in Fig 2 where “threshold” is misspelled three times. Please view Fig 2 here.

Notes: GDPpc: Gross Domestic Product per capita; QALYs: Quality Adjusted Life Years. Notes: These five countries were selected to reflect the range of results obtained in the incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs) in the 30 Latin American and Caribbean countries analysed (percentiles 10%-Cuba, 25%-Colombia, 50%-Brazil, 75%-Panama and 90%-Chile). Each point represents 1 of the 1000 simulated ICERs in the probabilistic sensitivity analysis for each country. Probabilities of being Cost-Saving, or Cost-Effective at 1 and 3 GDPpc for all countries can be seen in Table 2.
