Acute leukemia is not a contagious disease, so it is not transmissible. Acute leukemia is a malignant tumor disease of the hematopoietic system. The causes of this disease are still not very clear, however, some known inducers include exposure to radiation, contact with chemotherapy drugs, and contact with benzene-containing chemicals. The genetic factors of acute leukemia are also not significant, so children usually do not have a genetic predisposition if their parents suffer from acute leukemia.
