Health and Social Awareness Highlight
July is UV Safety Awareness Month!
Sun safety is important all year, but this month, we’re strengthening our commitment to keep you safe from UV radiation. July is UV Safety Awareness Month, a time we encourage everyone to take steps to protect themselves from the dangers of ultraviolet (UV) radiation.
Ultraviolet radiation is a type of electromagnetic radiation that is invisible to the naked eye. It is made up of high-energy waves that can damage DNA and cause sunburns.
You can do a few things to minimize your sun exposure and reduce your risk of skin damage.
- Try to stay in the shade as much as possible. If you are in the sun, wear protective clothing such as a long-sleeved shirt and pants.
- You should also apply sunscreen with a high SPF rating to exposed skin.
- Avoid being in the sun during peak hours, typically between 10 am and 4 pm.
When it comes to sunscreen, there are a few things you should look for in order to ensure that you’re getting the best possible protection. Choose a sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher. Make sure that the sunscreen is broad-spectrum, which will protect against both UVA and UVB rays. And, choose a water-resistant sunscreen if you’ll be spending time in the water.
