Young Adults Still Getting Too Much Sun

With all of the information and even scare tactics to warn people that too much sun can cause skin cancer, half of individuals between the ages of 18 and 29 aren't listening! According to a report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a survey of young people revealed 50.9% reported getting at least one sunburn in 1999. In 209, that figure 'dropped' to 50.1%!  Sunburns can directly increase one's risk for skin cancers including melanoma.
