Yes, they are perfectly safe to be around pregnant women, 'Cancers' are not contageous in the sense that just being around someone can cause you to get it.. however if they have recently been treated with chemo (a few hours, days ago) you may want to keep a little distance as some chemicals used in hospitals are not safe for pregnant women- but in general, you should be perfectly fine if you are pregnant around someone undergoing chemo. As long as the person isn't sick with a contageous illness on top of whatever they've been diagnosed with- like strep throat, flu, bronchitus etc.
