What does Dr. Linos suggest is needed to reverse the
growing number of cancer cases? Check all that
apply.
A recent study shows that indoor tanning (using tanning
beds) is now causing more cases of cancer than
cigarettes. Researchers estimate around 360,000 cases of
lung cancer each year can be blamed on smoking.
Compare that to the more than 450,000 cases of skin
cancer (including basal and squamous cell carcinoma and
melanoma) that are attributed to indoor tanning.
Most people, however, do not understand the dangers
that indoor tanning presents. Indoor tanning is
incredibly popular. In the same study, scientists found
that 35 percent of adults, 19 percent of adolescents, and
55 percent of university students have used tanning beds.
"People are already aware of the harms of smoking, but
they are not aware of the harms of indoor tanning," Dr.
Eleni Linos, assistant professor of dermatology at the
University of California, San Francisco states. "We need
to get the message out that indoor tanning is dangerous,
and causes a tremendous health burden to voung neople
ensuring that people who use tanning beds know
they can cause cancer
encouraging people to share the dangers of
tanning beds with friends and family
banning the use of both cigarettes and tanning
beds
informing young people that they too can develop
skin cancer
limiting tanning bed use to older adults only
