## Resource

Oregon’s melanoma rates are alarmingly high—23 to 26 cases per 100K people—despite not being a sun-drenched state. UVA rays sneak through clouds, and people tend to linger outside when the sun finally breaks through. Early detection saves lives, with over 90% survival if caught early. Watch for moles changing or sores that won’t heal, get annual skin checks, and wear sunscreen year-round—not just in summer—to stay healthy and enjoy the outdoors safely.
