And, with warm weather and bright sunshine comes another important factor -- sun safety. Dr. Donna Reynolds, Durham Region's Associate Medical Officer of Health, says "as soon as the sun is out, and even when the sun is not out, people should practise sun safety. That means seeking shade and wearing protective clothing." clothing." But, when neither is an option, Dr. Reynolds says sunscreen is the answer. "The minimum suggested suggested coverage is SPF (Sun Protection Factor) 15, applied a half-hour before going outside so it soaks in really well," advises Dr. Reynolds, adding it's important to re-apply sunscreen sunscreen after being in the water. A sunscreen containing an SPF of 30 is also often recommended, says Dr. Reynolds. That's because people tend to put sunscreen on in too thin a layer, she adds. For babies, especially those under six months of age, Dr. Reynolds says sunscreen sunscreen is not a good idea. "They just shouldn't be put in the sun at all," she says.
