Leukemia can not be transmitted from one person to another, even by blood transfusion also. So it is a noncommunicable disease.
Communicable lung diseases would be Tuberculosis, the common cold, HiNi flu, these are contagious. Non-communicable lung diseases would be asthma, COPD, and Lung cancer.
Non-communicable.
No, heart disease is not communicable, in that it cannot be passed directly from person to person.
The reason that cancer is an example of a non-communicable disease is that it can not be transmitted person to person. A cold is communicable because you can get a cold from someone else.
No, cancer is an non communicable disease , because the disease causing factor is inside our body
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".
Non-communicable means - not capable of being passed on. So anything that can affect you that you can not pass on to someone else is a non-communicable disease. Examples would be - Multiple Sclerosis or (MS), Black lung, Lyme Disease, Legionnaires' disease, Mad Cow, Etc ...

diabetes, cancer, asthma
non-communicable diseases
Well, honey, non-small cell lung cancer makes up about 85% of all lung cancer cases. So, if you're dealing with lung cancer, chances are it's more likely to be the non-small cell type. But hey, cancer is cancer, and it's all a pain in the butt no matter how you slice it.
No. Cancers are not communicable diseases- they are specific to the patient. You cannot 'catch' cancer by contact with an infected person.
