Error in Table 1 Title

In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in the title for Table 1 as published. The title has incorrect wording. The two columns “Brazil” refer to the total number of cases of ARD-T, lung and ovarian cancers in adults of 30 years or more and not to “all others”.
The correct title appears below.
Table 1. Number of deaths (n) with records of ARD-T, and lung and ovarian cancer in the 29 municipalities (H-ASB) and for all Brazilian municipalities, 2000–2017.

Error in Table 2 Number

In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Table 2 as published. The typical asbestos-related diseases (ARD-T) number for men is 357 instead of 257. The corrected Table 2 appears below.
Table 2. Number of deaths (n), from pooled and individual ARD-T, and lung and ovarian cancer in the H-ASB municipalities and the standardized rate ratios (SRR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) compared to the reference group, Brazil, 2000–2017. Standard population: Brazil 2010.
