Author notes
Competing Interests: We indeed received financial support in the form of grant funding from Johnson and
Johnson Corporate Citizen Trust through University of North Carolina, United States
of America. Johnson and Johnson Corporate Citizen Trust, a philanthropy arm of Johnson
and Johnson is responsible for managing Johnson and Johnson's Global Community Impact
programs and activities across Europe, The Middle East and Africa (refer to the link;
https://www.jjcct.org/about/). This does not alter our adherence to PLOS ONE policies on sharing data and materials.
