This is more about diagnosis, in my opinion. In the Balkans, we only go to the doctor when we’re close to dying.

Remember people, any cancer rate map is a map of cancer rate diagnosis, not actual prevalence.

North Europe gets less sun and therefore some people use solariums/sunbeds to tan, which are known to cause skin cancer when overused. Additionally, people dont use sunscreen as often as they should.

It’s sad that we have more data than ever before, but people resist doing the obvious. Distrusting the experts.
Instead, there are influencers that promote eating carrots instead of using sun screen.

Israel was the 2nd worst for skin cancer in the world. 2nd only to Australia. Almost like the people there ~~don’t really belong there~~ are a peace loving democracy who abide by international law.
Now I believe they’re 19th which is an incredible achievement. An intense govt campaign is to thank for it.
I see northern europeans come here to Spain and just burn on purpose. “it will go brown after a bit” they say. I heard one girl say that she didn’t need sun cream as she was “so white that the sun just reflects off [her]”.
They need an Israeli style campaign to ~~kill 10s, possibly 100s of thousands of people and ethnically cleanse an entire area for~~ *~~lebensraum~~* raise awareness.
Meanwhile my grandparents were from west africa and I don’t leave the house without factor 50 on my face.

Ireland can’t be right. We’d actually need some sun for such high skin cancer rates.
