i think that lung cancer can not be transmitted. because its something that it is way different than other disease. if a person has lung cancer and has relationships with someone who does not. their is no way he or she could get. kissing someone does not transmite it...unless that persons has AIDS,HIV etc. than then i do believe that it could be transmitted.

Is lung cacer contagious?
No, lung cancer is not contagious. Lung cancer develops when abnormal cells in the lungs grow and multiply uncontrollably, forming a tumour. These abnormal cells are not transmitted from person to person like an infectious disease. Instead, lung cancer is primarily caused by exposure to risk factors such as smoking, secondhand smoke, environmental pollutants (such as radon and asbestos), and genetic predisposition. While certain infectious agents, such as viruses or bacteria, can contribute to the development of some types of cancer (such as human papillomavirus and cervical cancer), there is no evidence to suggest that lung cancer is caused by an infectious agent that can be transmitted from one person to another through direct contact or airborne particles. It's essential to understand that lung cancer is primarily a result of individual lifestyle choices and environmental exposures, rather than being contagious like a cold or flu. However, exposure to secondhand smoke from tobacco products can increase the risk of lung cancer in non-smokers who are frequently exposed to tobacco smoke. Therefore, it's important to avoid smoking and minimize exposure to secondhand smoke to reduce the risk of developing lung cancer.
