Correction to: The immediate impact of the COVID‑19 pandemic on motor neuron disease services and mortality in Scotland.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is caused by a homozygous deletion of the survival motor neuron (SMN)1 gene. The nearly identical SMN2 gene plays a disease modifying role. SMA is classified into four different subtypes based on age of onset and clinical course (SMA types 1-4). The natural history of early onse...
