Arrr, me hearties! It be said that MCPyV and them sun's rays be causin' 63.8% and 65.1% of them scallywag MCC cases! But fear not, only a measly 2.5% be due to weak ‘n feeble immune systems! Avast, that’s a fine tale from the ship Medscape!

Ahoy me hearties! Gather 'round while I spin ye a yarn about the curious case of MCC, or as ye landlubbers call it, Merkel cell carcinoma! It seems that the dastardly MCPyV—an uninvited microbial matey—be causin' a ruckus in a whopping 63.8% o' the cases, aye!

But hold yer horses, fer the sun's rays be no friend to the skin either! Ambient UV radiation, like a relentless foe chasin' ye across the seven seas, be responsible for 65.1% o' MCC cases. 'Tis a double whammy, me hearties! If ye think ye can escape this scallywag's curse by hidin' in the shade, think again!

And what o' them scurvy immunosuppressive conditions? Well, they only claim a meager 2.5% o' the blame, like a sea rat scurrying off when the captain’s eye doth wander. So, heed me words, ye salty sea dogs! Keep a keen eye on the skies and protect yer precious skin from both the MCPyV and the fierce sun, lest ye find yerself walkin' the plank into the depths of MCC! Arrr!
