Year 2020 gave a unique experience to each and every individual of our society. It taught us some of the unknown and unfamiliar concepts such as “social distancing,” “lockdowns,” “virtual meetings,” “mask mandates,” and “second wave.” We learned to adapt to the risk of unknown unknowns. Our journal made a good beginning last year by dedicating its first issue to articles related to COVID issues, particularly in respect of gastrointestinal endoscopy. It gave some clear concepts on COVID-19 and endoscopy practice that helped the practicing gastroenterologists and especially endoscopists to face the challenge of COVID-19 pandemic in a better way. I sincerely appreciate all the authors of the March 2020 issue for putting their efforts in making the issue fruitful. It covered all the aspects of COVID-19, including epidemiology and infectivity to treatment. We are happy to announce the articles that we consider “best” published in the Journal of Digestive Endoscopy in 2020.
