This article contained errors on p. 8, para 1 and in Table 3. The health density figures should refer to the number of midwives, nurses and physicians per 100 000, not per 10 000. The sentence on p. 8 should read:

The density of midwives and nurses is over 30-fold higher in Category 1 (664 per 100 000 population) compared with Category 4 (57 per 100 000 population) and Category 5 (30 per 100 000), and the density of doctors is 50 times higher.

A corrected version of Table 3 appears on the following page.
