Melanoma Rates Have Dropped in New England

According to a new report, New England is doing an excellent job at educating citizens about skin cancer. According to MassLive, the Northeast is the one region in the US to report a decline in melanoma diagnoses — but New England performed particularly well. Melanoma is the most common type of skin cancer in the country, causing more than 9,000 deaths a year, according to the publication, and “continues to increase faster than the rate associated with any other preventable cancer,” says the study.
