Sun Safety Facts - Skin cancer affects 1 in 5 Americans, and more than 1 million new cases are diagnosed each year. Of these cases, more than 108,230 are melanoma, a cancer that will claim 8,110 lives this year. Skin cancer is a threat particularly for soccer players and their fans because of the many hours spent in the midday sun, a major risk factor for developing the condition. |
