People who wear sunscreen also see dermatologists more often so they are going to get more diagnoses.

yes. people put on sunscreen and it gives them a false feeling of security which leads to them sitting in the sun more often. same as how people with protective gear during skating often times get more injuries. they take more risks

Remember there are warnings on Bleach to not drink it. People who believe suncream causes cancer because Facebook said so are that reason.

I use sunscreen every day because I’m ginger, freckly and pale as heck! I’m at a much higher risk of melanoma because of my complexion. Doesn’t mean sunscreen causes skin cancer. Jeez. Without sunscreen I wouldn’t be able to even go outside properly
