Corrections: April 7, 2021

Corrections that appeared in print on Wednesday, April 7, 2021.

An article on Sunday about white evangelicals who do not intend to get vaccinated erroneously included a photograph of an anti-vaccine protest in Atlanta. Although some protesters carried signs featuring Bible verses, the event was organized by a group with no religious affiliation.

The mini crossword puzzle on Tuesday provided incorrect clues for 6-Across and 8-Across. The clue for 6-Across is “Did February march?” A: “No, but ___ may” and the clue for 8-Across is “Derisive Laughs. The correct puzzle can be solved at nytimes.com/crosswords.

An item in the Of Interest feature about gun violence in Chicago referred incorrectly to the number of shootings in the city in the first quarter of 2021. There were 131 homicides, not shootings.

Because of an editing error, an article on Monday about virus tests at an elite high school misstated the federal agency to which SafeGuard had applied for lab certification. Such certifications are reviewed by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, not the Food and Drug Administration.

An Op-Ed essay on Saturday about being Jewish referred incorrectly to the Treasury secretary and misspelled her surname. She is Janet Yellen, not Yellin, and should not have been included in a list of Jews who have died.

A column on Monday about violence against Black Americans described incorrectly what Emmett Till’s killers did with his body. They tied to his neck a fan from a cotton gin, not a cotton gin. It also used an outdated title for Daina Ramey Berry at the University of Texas, Austin. She is a professor of history and African diaspora studies, not an associate professor.

An article on Sunday about rezoning in SoHo referred incorrectly to applications submitted in a lottery for affordable apartments. New York City’s housing lottery site received over 25 million applications; 25 million people did not submit applications. The article also misidentified the street where jazz performer Ornette Coleman lived. He lived on Prince Street, not Grand Street.

An article on Tuesday about 16 players and a coach from the N.H.L.’s Vancouver Canucks that tested positive for the coronavirus misidentified a Vancouver radio station. It is Sportsnet 650, not 360.

An article on Tuesday about the four-part series “Exterminate All the Brutes” on HBO described incorrectly a phrase from the character Kurtz in the Joseph Conrad novella “Heart of Darkness.” The words “Exterminate all the brutes!” are in a postscript written by Kurtz at the end of a report; they are not the final words we hear from him. (His final words are: “The horror! The horror!”)

An obituary on Monday about the China scholar Kristofer Schipper misstated where he was born. Although he grew up in Schardam, the Netherlands, he was born in Varmland County, Sweden. The obituary also misstated part of the name of Mr. Schipper’s wife, who survives him. She is Yuan Bingling, not Yang.
