A uncharted nationwide survey by the American Academy of Dermatology finds that many tribe don't know enough about sun damage to protect themselves from developing skin cancer. "Our inspection showed that despite our repeated warnings about the dangers of UV exposure and the importance of proper Sol protection, many people could not correctly answer true/false statements on the subject," said dermatologist Dr Zoe D Draelos, consulting professor at Duke University School of Medicine in Durham, NC, in a report release.

The inquiry found that only about one-third of more than 7000 people surveyed knew that neither ultraviolet A nor ultraviolet B rays are sure for your skin.
