Cancer – Erasto Gaertner Health Complex, through the Conscientizar+ program, and the Brazilian Society of Dermatology – Paraná Regional (SBD-PR) are partnering to launch a series of awareness actions for the Orange campaign in December.
This mobilization encourages the prevention and control of skin cancer, and draws attention to the increased incidence of the disease during the summer.
With the slogan “Add more SPF to your summer”, the movement of two of Brazil’s most important institutions in the fight against disease brings an “orange alert” to Brazilians returning to beaches and pools and encourages the use of a solar filter as a protective product against radiation.
In Paraná, more than 500 cases of melanosis are diagnosed annually.
