Correction to: impact of bnt162b2 vaccination and isolation on sars-cov-2 transmission in israeli households: an observational study

In the article “Impact of BNT162b2 Vaccination and Isolation on SARS-CoV-2 Transmission in Israeli Households: An Observational Study” by Layan et al. (1), there was an error in the code of the Markov chain Monte Carlo inference model that led to minor errors in the estimates of transmission parameters. In our analysis, inference is performed in continuous time. However, in our code, the probability of infection of detected cases was expressed in discrete time, $1-\exp \big(-\lambda \big({t}_{infection}\big)\big)$, instead of continuous time, $\lambda \big({t}_{infection}\big)$. We have now corrected this error.
