TWIN FALLS, Idaho (KMVT/KSVT) As we’re starting to see sunny days and the temperature heats up the health district is stressing the importance of sunscreen.
The South Central Health District’s spokesperson Brianna Bodily says that skin cancer is the most preventable cancer that there is if proper sun safety measures are taken.
She told us that simply wearing long sleeve clothes and long pants and wearing sunscreen can help prevent long-term skin damage and cancer. She also added sunscreen cannot simply be added once and must be re-applied every two hours.

BOISE, Idaho South Central Public Health District on Monday held a mass vaccination clinic for the Twin Falls School District - administering some 450 shots to teachers and staff members.
Scaling mass clinics to a larger population or group would be difficult though. The main reason is the lack of vaccine supply in Idaho.
“We re grateful for the opportunity to provide these options for our staff members and help protect their health,” said Eva Kramer, a spokesperson for the Twin Falls School District.
TWIN FALLS, Idaho (KLIX)-A COVID-19 vaccine clinic covered about 60 percent of the Twin Falls School District personnel on Monday.
The school district said the clinic, conducted by the South Central Public Health District, and hosted at Canyon Ridge High School resulted in 450 staff getting their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine; about another 100 staff members got shots from either St. Luke s Health System or other providers. The clinic was held earlier in the day so teachers and staff wouldn t miss time while students were at school. “We are grateful to the school district and staff who are taking advantage of this opportunity to stay healthy and protected against COVID-19,” said Brianna Bodily, South Central Public Health District spokesperson in a prepared statement. “Keeping this disease out of our schools is an important step in protecting all of our community.”
