Erratum: Vol. 48, No. 31

In the report entitled "Radon Testing in Households with a Residential Smoker--United States, 1993-1994," the last sentence on page 685 should have read: "Finally, studies addressing the link between smoking and radon were limited to cigarette smokers (5), but the NHIS included smokers of all types of tobacco."

The accompanying reference 5, which was correct as published, is:

5. National Academy of Sciences. Biological effects of ionizing radiation (BEIR) VI report: the health effects of exposure to indoor radon. Executive summary. Available at http://www.epa.gov/ iaq/radon/beiriv1.html. Accessed February 19, 1998.
