infectious deseases happen by microb , viruses and some bacteria but cancer : In general, cancer appears to be caused by abnormal regulation of cell division. Cancers can occur when cells divide too rapidly or when cells “forget” how to die. Cancer involves the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells that have mutated from normal tissues. This growth can kill when these cells prevent normal function of vital organs or spread throughout the body, damaging essential systems. there fore it cant infectious.

No, it is not. Both my parents passed away due to cancer, and I was in close contact with them, as were most of the family......TERRA the "nurse"....Cancer is not "mostly hereditary." Nor is it because of "unhealthy life styles, etc". Does your reasoning also apply to young children who are victims of cancer? You obviously know nothing about cancer, or nursing. Or did you mean you're a nurse at a vets surgery? Even so, it's scary to think any sort of living creature is in your care

Not aat all. But it can be hereditary. If your grandparents or parents have cancer, it might a higher a risk of getting cancer too. But you cannot get cancer by spending time or sharing food with a cancer patient.

lucky for you...it is not...
it is, however hereditary, meaning if your family has incidents of it...you could be in line for it too, in some form.
Family history means a lot...and too much sun does too....sounds like you've been there already.

It can be. HPV virus causes 60% of all cervical cancer in women.
Wow four thumbs down, and that's for the only correct answer posted here, except for Terra's.
