ERRATUM

Gio B. Gori

The Health Policy Center, Bethesda, MD 20816

In a Letter to the Editor (Gori GB. Individualized or population risks: what is the argument? Am J Public Health. 2001;91:1919), I erroneously quoted Colin B. Begg as stating, in his March 2001 article (Begg CB. The search for cancer risk factors: when can we stop looking? Am J Public Health. 2001;91:360–364), that " ‘the primary purpose of epidemiology is to determine individual risks.’ " In fact, this statement is not a direct quote. Begg states that "a primary purpose of epidemiologic research is to determine the extent to which this [unique individual] risk varies from person to person and the factors that explain this variation" (p 361). Gio B. Gori, The Health Policy Center, Bethesda, MD 20816.
