Correction to: World Journal of Pediatrics https://doi.org/10.1007/s12519-022-00568-8

In the original publication, the author has missed to include the reference 20 “Fu Y, Tang Z, Ye Z, Mo S, Tian X, Ni K, et al. Human adenovirus type 7 infection causes a more severe disease than type 3. BMC Infect Dis. 2019;19:36” in the reference list.

The original article has been corrected.
