*From The Nurse:*
The World Health Organization has labeled tanning beds as a high-level
cancer causing agent. This puts them on par with tobacco use as a public
health threat. The W.H.O. found that people who used tanning beds before
the age of 30 were 75% more likely to develop melanoma – the deadliest form
of skin cancer. To look tanned at prom choose a self-tanner over visiting
a tanning booth!
