I dont think so but there is cancer bacteria and it says that cancer bacteria is a organism and cancer bacteria could cause cancer witch could infect tissues in your body

to be honest from what i know of cancer i would have to say yes it is i am no Scientist but living things when attacked go into a defence mode cancers defence could be very well when attacked it spreads. in my eyes what needs to be done is determine what happens when cancer shows up the body goes into defence mode going to drs gettung check out going for chemotherapeutic and so fourth what really needs to be researched is a way to say stop cancer from growing and how to elmitate it from the body with something simiular to an anti biotic

Technically, no.. that is why viruses are hard to treat. When you have a bacterial infection, you go to the doctors and he gives you antibiotics which kills the bacteria and makes you better. However if you have a viral infection, ever notice how you dont get any prescription? That's because of the paradox of "how do you kill something that's already dead?"
