Resumo

Sport is bringing some much needed joy to the world. The Olympics and Paralympics, the Copa América, the European Football Championship, and Wimbledon are bringing excitement to millions after postponement or cancellation in 2020 (safety concerns notwithstanding). Although watching elite sport might be more stimulating than addressing modern day sedentarism, a third Lancet Series published this week, following on from publications in 2012 and 2016, shows the importance of regular physical activity and sport to health and wellbeing.
