      All UV exposure counts. The damage to your skin (premature aging and risk of cancer) is cumulative, so a few minutes here and there (driving, gardening, grilling, etc.) add up over time. That's why the recommendation is to wear sunscreen every day.

    If 9,500 people get diagnosed with skin cancer each day, that is ~3.47 million people each year, which is around 90% of the size of each new cohort of American citizens. So if I'm not mistaken, according to these numbers, assuming we continue with the same trend pretty stably, almost everybody in the US is going to be eventually diagnosed with skin cancer? (even if there can recurring diagnoses for the same individual, and even if the average number per person who's diagnosed is 10 diagnoses throughout life, it's about 9% of the people in the US being diagnosed, which still doesn't sound right at all.)

    Applying sunscreen every two hours is cumbersome and not something everyone has time or money to do. Personally, my skin freaks out. But think of those who work outdoors, etc. Ain't nobody got time to be doing all that. My two cents: If all the sun you get is from walking from your home or work back to your car, you're fine without it. Human beings need a bit of sun exposure, but if you're hanging out in the sun for a while because of leisure or because it's your job, wearing a hat, glasses, or long-sleeved loose things will also provide protective coverage. It shouldn't be one extreme or the other (sunscreen every two hours or not at all). If articles and news stories focused on all options available regarding coverage, we could all make better-informed decisions based on our indivudal circumstances.

    Anytime I hear “experts warn against…misinformation.” I tune out. “Experts,” and “misinformation” are two words that mean little to me anymore. I immediately begin looking for holes, motives, and what the objective truth might be.

      Experts are usually good at their job. But the key factor to look for is if they are doing a promotional or not. They are required to disclose this information according to FCC guidelines. If not you can file a complaint and can even sue for misinformation.

      Why don't you listen to what they're claiming instead of tuning out? Taking their word for granted or denying it outright are two sides of the same coin.

      Yes, it's called learning from your mistakes. Smart people recognize and learn from mistakes they've made and adjust their behavior based on what they've learned.
      Stupid people talk out of their A$$ about things they know nothing about and have no experience with.
      I see no inconsistencies here.
