No. John 305 ........................ No, absolutely not. Cancer is a mutation of the cells in any body part of an animal or human. In some cases it is a cause of ionizing radiation exposure. Ionizing radiation is radiation emitted from a source which can damage cells in the body sometimes leading to mutations which eventually turn into tumorous organisms. Cancer IS NOT INFECTIOUS. You can not catch it from someone under any circumstances! it is impossible. _________________________________________________________ To a point you can. From contact? No. But studies have shown that some types of cancer can be hereditary, meaning it can pass down from parents to children. SO it is possible to get cancer through family genes, however, it is not spread from person to person like the flu or aids.
Yes, you can. It depends on what kind of sickness you have because they can all be caught in different ways. For example: You can get sick by someone with strep throat if they breathe on you, because the germs in their mouth will catch on to you. Yes, you can.

Cancer is not contagious, so it won't spread from one person to another. However, some cancers, like cervical, liver, and throat cancer, can be caused by viruses that are spread from one person to another.
No, cancer is not contagious unless your inherit it possibly and it is in your genes.
Cancer is not contagious. You cannot 'catch' cancer. Cancer results when a cell gets 'turned on' and starts to reproduce in an uncontrolled and abnormal way.
no,cancer is not contagious.
No. Cancer is not a contagious disease.
no
no
AIDS and warts can be passed from one person to another. Cancer, diabetes, and hypertension are not contagious conditions.
A communicable disease is one that one person can catch from another person. The flu is one such disease. A noncommunicable disease is one that one person can not catch from another. Cancer is one such disease.
Because cancer is a non infectious disease meaning it cannot spread by just simply coughing and sneezing. Although you can inherit cancer from your parents.
No. Cancers are not communicable diseases- they are specific to the patient. You cannot 'catch' cancer by contact with an infected person.
A communicable disease is one that one person can catch from another person. The flu is one such disease. A noncommunicable disease is one that one person can not catch from another. Cancer is one such disease.
You did not give us the choices, but a disease that is non-communicable is not contagious. That means you cannot catch it just by being in the same room with a person who has it. For example, cancer is non-communicable. If you visit a cancer patient, there is no evidence you will get cancer from visiting that person.
Our current understanding of the causes of cancer is incomplete, but it is clear that cancer is not caused by an injury, such as a bump or bruise. And although being infected with certain viruses may increase the risk of some types of cancer, cancer is not contagious; no one can "catch" cancer from another person.
You can't catch cancer off your hamster.
No, but you can catch bacteria which can cause infections. Leukemia, a form of cancer, cannot be "caught". No cancer can be "caught".
A disease that cannot be spread from person to person is non-communicable. For example, lung cancer can make a person cough. But they won't give me cancer from coughing (though the cough can still spread viruses or bacteria). A person's heart disease is not "catch-able".
Well it is easy to catch and STD if you arnt careful about who you have sex with and what not but you cant actually "catch" cancer it is caused by many things for you to get cancer like for example smoking can cause cancer.
No, heart disease is not communicable, in that it cannot be passed directly from person to person.
