It is very easy to disagree with me without showing evidence. What are you disagreeing with in that statement? Most skin cancers are not a big deal: Skin cancer survival rate for BCC's are near 100%. Only Melanoma are more deadly but occur in only 25/100,000 in the US. https://gis.cdc.gov/Cancer/USCS/#/special-topic/demographics... BCC's occur in 80% of cases, the rest are mostly SCC's. Both of these are nearly 100% treatable. https://wasatchdermatology.com/blogs/basal-cell-vs-squamous-... > Melanomas can vanish on their own https://www.nature.com/articles/s41379-021-00870-2 What did I say that was wrong? If two forms or melanoma not caused by the sun, that means that .3% of a very rare skin cancer are caused by the sun. The odds of anyone getting melanoma from the sun are near zero. This also means that you are likely to get melenoma form something other than the sun. | ||
