TITLE:   GCN CIRCULAR
NUMBER:  28780
SUBJECT: GRB201024A: correction to GCN28777 - there was no rebrightening

Paul Kuin (UCL/MSSLL) reports:

Due to an incorrect background subtraction in the later exposures of
GRB201024A, an incorrect 'rebrightening' was found in the Swift-UVOT
photometry. In actuality the source had faded away.

My sincere apologies if this has caused any problems.
