Can pancreatic cancer patients infect others?

Pancreatic cancer is a serious malignant tumor with very complicated causes. Many patients worry about infecting their family members. So can pancreatic cancer be transmitted to family members?

Someone has said before that pancreatic cancer is actually a disease of the digestive system and an infectious disease, but this has not been confirmed so far. Therefore, we can only say that viruses may be one of the causes of pancreatic cancer. It has not been confirmed whether cancer cells can survive after contact with other people's skin and digestive tract. Even if cancer cells from one animal are implanted in the tissues of another animal, it is difficult to cause cancer in the other animal.

We have studied this issue a long time ago, and some people have done experiments such as putting animals with cancer and healthy animals together. After a long period of observation, no direct infection was found. In the hospital, different types of cancer patients lived in the same ward for a long time, and cancer patients and non-cancer patients lived in the same ward for a long time, and no direct infection was found. Medical staff who had long-term contact with cancer patients did not see an increase in their cancer incidence. A cancer patient lived with his family for a long time, and no infection was found. Based on this, it can be considered that cancer is generally not contagious.
