A Corrigendum on
Social Quarantine and Its Four Modes: Conceptional Exploration and the Theoretical Construction of the Policies Against COVID-19

by Lin, K., Mumtaz, A., Rahaman, M. A., and Mok, K. H. (2021). Front. Public Health 9:614476. doi: 10.3389/fpubh.2021.614476

In the published article, there was an error in Title. Instead of “Polices,” it should be “Policies.”

In the original article, there was a formatting mistake in Table 1 as published. The corrected Table 1 appears below.

TABLE 1
www.frontiersin.org

Table 1. Ranking of the GDP and the situation of Covid-19 in European states.

In the original article, there was an error on Page 2, the word “at” was used incorrectly, and should be “as,” the correct text appears below.

“Moisio (19) pointed out that social quarantine may aggravate social inequalities and class disparities since the most vulnerable groups during the pandemic were those low- and middle-income families as these groups were severely affected by market closures and months of factory lockdowns.”

In the original article, there was an error on Page 3, the word “theological” was used incorrectly, and should be written as “theoretical,” the correct text appears below.

“Since the function of social quarantine can be interpreted from different angles and approaches, our analysis should look at both the macro- and micro-levels of social actions to develop the conceptual and theoretical work to respond many complicated issues to be engaged.”

In the original article, there was an error on Page 5, the word “seventh” was used incorrectly, and should be written as “twelve,” the correct text appears below.

“In Europe, Germany ranked first in terms of per capita gross domestic product. In this pandemic, its number of reported cases is twelve among the top 10 European economies (see Table 1), and its mortality rate is not very high (nearly 11% of infections).”

The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
