In the editorial by A’Court C, et al, COVID-19 and cardiac considerations in the community, Br J Gen Pract 2021; DOI: https://bjgp.org/content/70/700/524; the Figure 1 caption incorrectly stated: ‘COVID-19 is defined by an acute rise and fall in cardiac troponin.’ It should be ‘Acute myocardial injury in COVID-19 (defined by an acute rise and fall in cardiac troponin)’, as shown within the body of the Figure. Figure 1 caption now reads ‘Possible mechanisms and clinical manifestations of acute myocardial injury in COVID-19. MI = myocardial infarction. ACE-2 = angiotensin converting enzyme 2. The online version has been corrected.
