Skin Cancer rates increase 150% in UK
Cancer Research UK announced this week that skin cancer incidence rates in the UK have increased markedly.
The introduction of “lockdowns”, the restriction of movement and non-essential healthcare activities being suspended have had an impact on the diagnosis of cancer cases including skin cancer.
