7:10 am
sanitizer on standby.the germiest spot isn't the waiting area, the check-in counter, or even the bathroom. a team of experts monitored a variety of airport surfaces during the winter of 2016. respiratory viruses showed up on 10-percent of the surfaces the scientists tested -- including handrails, shopping kiosks, check-in counters, play areas, and of course -- in the air.but the most germ-filled spot in an airport is the security checkpoint. those plastic bins you fill with your belongings are rapidly recycled through the line -- meaning they're touched by hundreds of passengers a day.so it's not just your phone, passport, wallet, and laptop these bins are carrying through the x-ray machine... they're also carrying viral pathogens that could make you sick.your best bet? wash your hands regularly while you travel... and keep the sanitizer handy.i'm andy rose reporting.

( marty ) california is set to become the first state in the country to ban ban cheap, short-term health insurance plans. those plans are pushed by the trump administration as a low-cost alternative to obamacare. new federal rules allow insurers to deny coverage to people with pre-existing conditions. insurers can also sell health insurance

studies show that those who regularly used sunscreens were more likely to burn than those who did not. our health expert, karen owoc, is here to explain why and what to do about it. why sunscreen users burn possible reasons for this finding are that sunscreen users: 1. may have a false sense of security. 2. justify staying outdoors loner. 3. don't follow label directions properly. national health interview survey of 31,000 americans recently published in jama dermatology. commonly

missed spots the most commonly overlooked areas when it comes to applying sunscreen are the most vulnerable to skin cancer. these body parts are exposed to the sun al-most daily and not covered up during the colder months. scalp: use an oil-free sunscreen (least greasy option for hair) if you're bald, shave your head, and on your part. ears: cancer occurs frequently on the ears. eyelids: cancers often develop on the skin around the eyes. difficult to pro-tect with sunscreen if you don't want lotion in your eyes. wear wrap-around sunglasses with uv- blocking lenses. lips: one of the highest risk areas for squamous cell cancer. when they de-velop on the lips, there is the highest chance of spreading and 35% chance of recurrence. risk of death could be as high as 15%. hands: if you wash your hands
9:50 am
after applying sunscreen, the backs of your hands end up with zero sun protection. must reapply sunscreen onto backs of your hands after washing them (that includes after using the restroom too). remember the backs of your hands and arms are highly exposed when driving. back of the neck: this is a high-risk zone for basal and squamous cell can-cer. even if your ha long hair, it needs sunscreen. back: according to the american cancer society, men are particularly at high risk of developing deadly melanoma on their backs. the back is a difficult area to apply sunscreen and often leads to severe sunburns. if you've had 5 or more blistering sunburns, your risk of melanoma is increased by 80% and your risk of non- melanoma skin cancer is increased by 68%. feet: if wearing sandals or have bare feet, your skin can burn easily. apply sunscreen to tops of the feet. date and shake your sunscreen mark the date that you opened the sunscreen with a waterproof marker if there is no
9:51 am
expiration date. sunscreens are meant to maintain their original potency for 3 years. shake it to distribute the active ingredients throughout the product. use enough sunscreen face - 1 teaspoon body - 1 ounce (a shot glass full) - about 1 tsp. per body part apply 15 to 30 minutes before going outside. reapply every 2 hours or immediately after swimming, sweating, or washing your hands. the abcs of sunscreens - lotion vs. spray; chemical vs mineral 1. chemical sunscreens (contain octinoxate and oxybenzone) look for broad spectrum (uva/uvb protection) uva rays prematurely age the skin (wrinkling, age spots). uvb rays burn the skin. both cause cancer. there is no such thing as "waterproof" sunscreen or "sunblock". spf 30 blocks 97% uvb rays. spf 50 blocks 98% uvb rays. spf 100 blocks 99% uvb rays. 2. mineral sunscreens are physical blocks (contain zinc oxide and titanium oxide) hawaii just signed a bill to ban chemical sunscreens (contain oxybenzone and octinoxate) because they are deemed potentially harmful to aquatic life. studies found these chemicals cause coral bleaching in coral reefs around the world. in the past 6 years, none of the tested mineral sunscreens offered superior uva/uvb protection or met their labeled spf. 3. sprays don't use sprays on
9:52 am
children. don't spray directly on your face. spray on hands first, then apply to the face. sprays are flammable! avoid open flames or any material that can throw sparks even if your skin feels dry. 4. lip balms must be spf 30 or higher and reapply every 2 hours. apply on both upper and lower lip. you're 12 times more likely to develop cancer on the lower lip than on the upper lip. the takeaway: wear sunscreen even on cloudy days uvb rays are more prevalent in the summer and between 10:00 am and 4:00 pm. uva rays are still prevalent regardless of the season or weather however, and can pass through glass, light clouds, can reflect off water, sand, concrete, and snow, and can reach below the water's surface. so even though you may not burn, you are being exposed to the uva rays that are less intense but cause aging skin and skin cancer.
