Comments

  1. Luna: i'm surprised it's taken this long for the UK to take notice - we've seen similar patterns in california and Australia
  2. Ava: what's surprising is how little this article mentions prevention through education. surely a public campaign warning of sunburn dangers could make a bigger dent in melanoma rates than increased awaren
  3. Noah: theirs health records are often more robust than ours, we should be learning from that'
  4. Fathom Raven: apparently sun safety isn't as prioritized here as a decent rail system though
  5. Jonas: a public health campaign where you haven't had one yet doesn't exactly qualify as 'learning from others' 👎
  6. Nora: finally tackling skin cancer in the UK, not like those dodgy holiday brochures from 20 years ago. Still waiting for real action on the public health campaigns, though
  7. Zoe: skin cancer's been a thing for decades, still nobody stops sunbathing on their lunch break. Priorities?
  8. Leo: you'd think public health would be a slam dunk for gov intervention, but i guess not 🌞
  9. Dusk Reaper: people always think this is just a rich-country problem, but I've seen studies from Australia too, and they're taking a completely different tack
  10. Mila: i've seen those same public health campaigns in australia and they had an impact, let's see if we can apply that here
  11. Omar Dumont: Melanoma's not just a summer thing, is it? People working outside all year round without any proper shade or breaks are gonna suffer
  12. Mila: apparently we have one too many health scares coming our way - can't we focus on keeping track of what's happening on the pitch right now?
  13. Mirage Serpent: i guess some public health campaigns are more effective than others somehow. that photo looks familiar, reminds me of those "sunbathing's like smoking" ads they used to plaster everywhere
