Another summer means another season for dermatologists in battling sunscreen misinformation, which is a tougher job nowadays thanks to social media. The anti-sunscreen movement, as chronicled by CBS News, is especially influencing young people.

Dermatologists are also speaking out about their own skin cancer diagnoses in an effort to save lives.
