Would especially sunny areas not produce people with more cancer (or certain types)?

Sunnier areas have less skin cancers, if that's what you were wondering.

Now is it because of the Vitamin D, or because of a more systemic application of sunscreen?


Late reply, I was wondering that but also, at least in the US, they tend to have older folks and retirees so that it may skew the stats. I really don't have any data on it, just speculating.


..or something else entirely
