Authors Toshio Ohshiro Founding Editor-in-Chief, Laser Therapy, Japan. Abstract It is an honour and a pleasure to be writing this Guest Editorial for our journal, Laser Therapy, after 3 years of enforced silence because of what my colleague and friend Glen Calderhead calls Covidiocy. We were forced to shut down the Tokyo Editorial Office when Japan went into lockdown in 2019, and suspend publication of the journal, so my Glad News is that Laser Therapy has once again risen like the Phoenix, but this time it’s as an “e-Phoenix” and an e-Journal! I am sure I am speaking for all Laser Therapy readers when I express my sincere gratitude to Professor Leonardo Longo of Florence, Italy, Secretary-General of the World Federation of Societies for Laser Medicine and Surgery (WFSLMS), who has been instrumental in securing a publisher for the re-emergence of the journal in an electronic digital format. Faithful readers will remember from my Editorials in the previous iteration of the journal that we were examining the possibility of moving over from a print version to a digital version, and now thanks to Prof Longo, that goal has been realised.
