I'd argue that while we are much more diligent than other countries, and regulations are much stronger. The average person doesn't pay nearly enough attention, and the fact the UV index isn't required to be mentioned on weather reports, or as prominently or more prominently than the temperature, is a big oversight in my opinion.

I check the UV every time I go outside (other than when it's died down over winter), just as you'd check the temperature, and I think it's wild barely anyone else does.
