We on Health In Harlem are fans of enjoying the sun and getting those vitamin D levels up, but we are also very aware that scorched skin is no fun. July is UV Safety Month and that is because as ubiquitous as the sun is, the damage it causes is just as widespread. In this episode we discuss the danger of UV radiation and deliver the information you need to stay safe while enjoying the best that Summer has to offer. As always, if you have any questions, comments or concerns about the program, please hit us up on our message board or via our social media pages.  UV Safety Sources Journal of the American Medical Association Dermatology: Ten-year Follow-Up of Persons with Sun-damaged Skin Associated with Subsequent Development of Squamous Cell Carcinoma https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7992022/ Summit Medical Group Blog: UV Safety Month  2022 https://www.summitmedical.com/blog/2022uv   Wirecutter (The New York Times): Lots of People Apply Sunscreen Wrong: Here’s How to Do It Right https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/blog/how-to-apply-sunscreen/
