Experts are worried about tanning's resurgence among young adults, fueled by social media. Some influencers are also encouraging the use of tanning beds. Gen Z adults are less informed about sun protection and more likely to believe misconceptions about tanning. Misinformation is also spread on social media about tanning. Despite tanning beds being classified as cancer-causing, federal regulations have stalled. Experts stress there is no safe tan and young tanning bed users are more likely to develop melanoma, a potentially life-threatening skin cancer. Parents are encouraged to communicate with their teens about the risks of tanning.

Carly Simon, the singer known for “Nobody Does It Better” and other hits, has been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. In a statement to The Associated Press on Monday, the eighty-three-year-old Simon shared her journey of learning to live with the condition. She had experienced arthritis and underwent joint replacement surgeries, but her mobility continued to decline. After an evaluation at the Mayo Clinic, she received the Parkinson's diagnosis. Simon also revealed she was treated for basal cell carcinoma on her face. Despite health challenges, music has been a solace. She will release “Comes in Waves,” her first album of original songs since 2008, in August.
