Where Are Future Doctors Who Southern Rural African Americans Will Trust? A Look Back into Rural Medical Scholars Data: Erratum
Abstract
In the March 2025 issue of Southern Medical Journal, the article by Wheat et al, “Where Are Future Doctors Who Southern Rural African Americans Will Trust? A Look Back into Rural Medical Scholars Data” contained an error in the first paragraph of the Discussion section. The text “67 million matriculants” should instead read “15,000 per million matriculants” so that the last two sentences of the paragraph read as follows: “At six/year from 6 million rural African Americans nationwide, traditional medical education matriculated one rural African American student per million population compared with 15,000 per million matriculants from the 288 million non-African American, non-Black population. Clearly, systemic changes are necessary to bring balance to this inequity.”This content is limited to qualifying members.
