We were delighted that Sophie Cousins, a journalist, has highlighted the neglect of melioidosis in this week's Lancet!

Thanks, 
It is amazing. To Me: At places, the facts are not quoted as answered. For Example: Punjab state, never mentioned by me.
Sincerely,

Thank you, Dr. Mohapatra, for the clarification. I was a bit doubtful about it, and in the meantime, I also received a few queries from my colleagues. Instead of Punjab and West Bengal, Odisha would have been more appropriate. It seems this may have been an oversight by the author. Since the article is likely to be highly cited, I would appreciate it if an erratum could be published at the earliest—perhaps in the next issue, if possible.

It is indeed an excellent article—no doubt about it!

Best regards,
Chiranjay

Yes, I requested to change/ for erratum at least for the one word.
Thanks

The Lancet is impressive, but you you know you have made when melioidosis makes it on Gardening Australia 😉 (unfortunately geo-blocked i assume).
