'CANCER NOT
- CONTAGIOUS
[ No Instance Recorder of
. Once Cancer Causing
\ Another
In spit*- of the fact that physicians
and nurses have come into, ititimate
• contact with cancer patients for so
' many years and taken no precautions
against infecting themselves, there is
no recorded instance, of one case of
cancer giving rise to another.
This is not to say that microbes are
- never found in cancers. Discoveries
- are announced from time to time thut
e bacteria have been identified with can
1, cer, hut upon full and impartial inves
s ligation it is always found that these
parasites have been invaders of the
csncer growth, followers rather than
producers of the malignant condition.
Cancers often become infected with
such microbes as infect wounds of.any
* kind, and the unpleasant odors which
are sometimes associated with taiicer
are due to 'these accidental contamina
tions. Consequently the precautions
i to be taken by those who come into
t contact with, cancer patients are only
such as should be followed with in
fected wounds.
There is no occasion to shun a per
, non w)U> has cancer, so far as danger
c of contracting the disease is concerned,
j The victims ueed all the sympathy and
tenderness which can he shown them.
Fear that' cancer is contagious has
sometimes led to unnecessary and un
charitable action toward the sick. (
