Better health begins with ideas
Editors' Note This week, our U.S.-based team is spending time with family and friends, and we hope those of you who are celebrating holidays in your corner of the world are enjoying them too.
We leave you with a selection of stories, including a look at Mexico-U.S. border relations in the age of COVID-19 and a commentary on why ecosystem protection and restoration policies (such as reviving stagnant lakes) are critical to climate progress. Another piece tracks how and why measles cases have crept up in the United States and Europe. Finally, our Culture Friday photo gallery shows the wondrous ways communities around the world give thanks.
As always, thank you for reading. We're grateful for you. —Thomas J. Bollyky and Mary Brophy Marcus, Editors
