'The medical misinformation mafia is at it again, this time with regards to ultraviolet (UV) rays and their effect on human health. Reports are now surfacing from all the usual suspects in the mainstream media claiming that exposure to UV rays, and particularly those emitted from tanning beds, is killing people -- and one popular mainstream "health" magazine has even hyperbolically compared tanning beds to coffins.
Why all the sudden commotion and paranoia about this widely misunderstood subject? A cohort of conventional oncologists is convinced that tanning beds are responsible for the eightfold rise in cases of melanoma that has occurred since 1970, so it is now on a mission to get as many people as possible to stop tanning. And the primary way this group appears to be doing this is by intensifying a campaign of fear and panic it initiated many years ago about the alleged dangers of tanning.'
