The coordinates of the candidate neutrino event coincident with LIGO/Virgo
S191216ap circulated in the original GCN circular 26460 (
https://gcn.gsfc.nasa.gov/gcn3/26460.gcn3) contained an error. The correct
right ascension value is given in the table below:


  dt      ra(deg)   dec(deg)   90% Angular Uncertainty(deg)
p-value(generic transient) p-value(binary merger)
