Insane.
Here in Australia, sunscreen is exempt from GST (our VAT) as long as it's only sunscreen (not mixed in with a a beauty product) and has an SPF rating of >15.
Given the northern summer getting nastier, this should be a no-brainer.
Skin cancer costs the country a lot more than the exemption.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: ☀️🧴 A #JAMA #Dermatology meta-analysis pooled 17 studies covering more than 321,000 people and found that a history of painful, blistering sunburns raised the odds of squamous cell carcinoma by 51% to 69%, with severe #childhood burns linked to up to three times the risk.
Researchers caution that the evidence is uncertain because it relies on people recalling past burns. The study reinforces #sun protection such as Slip, Slop, Slap for #kids and #teens.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🧬💉 #Tattoo ink triggers an immune response the moment it enters the skin, with pigment particles lodging permanently in the dermis and sometimes traveling to #lymphnodes.
A medical microbiologist explains that many modern inks contain industrial pigments and heavy metals, and the largely unregulated industry leaves consumers to navigate risks on their own.

Finished a 5 day program of high strength Efudix (fluorouracil) on my face 2X daily.
Feeling a bit knocked around, irritable, swollen face & around the eyes, slight obstruction on lower edges of visual field, occasional Eustachian tube discomfort, weeping crusty lesions on skin. Didn't sleep well.
Described as an old chemotherapy that wasn't highly selective, fluorourcil is meant to kill off sun damaged skin cells. And reduce future skin cancers.

My dermatologist froze a LOT of areas on my head a couple of days ago. Normally I don't mind, but this time I actually got brain freeze. Now I have weird blisters on my scalp; they're red on the edges, white in the centers. I look like someone with a space disease from original Star Trek! 🤣
They're booking me for a full photodynamic scalp peel, too. Apparently precancerous cells, like Spring, are busting out all over.

Anyone know where the hourly UV index charts have been put by BOM?
All I've got so far is a fast moving national map.
Lucky BOM didn't pay out taxpayers money for this rat-infested-garbage website.
