Transspecies infection gets increasingly rare the more distantly related a species is because signal transductions path ways and cell receptors/cell types are different in each species, and viruses need to be specialized due to their small genetic headspace. When they do transfer, it's usually because of another parasite that managed to bypass the gastrointestinal tract or the virus was transmitted sexually.
Regarding cancer, only 15% of cancers found in people are associated with any type of virus, and almost all of those are the result of sexual transmission or sharing needles. As stated before.
Of the non-virus transmissible cancers observed in which the cancer is spread clonally and wholesale, none of them have been transmitted between species and can only survive on a specific type of host.
Additionally, cooking food denatures proteins both viruses and cancers need to bypass cell receptors and signal transduction, which is why just short of prions, you're safe to eat anything cooked to 165F that isn't poisonous.


There has, to date, never been an observed case of humans contracting a virus from a fish for all of the reasons listed before.
Maybe you'll the first if you have a go-gettem attitude and wiggle it around in your twat before you cook it. But cancer will probably be the last thing you catch by that point.

Correction: a */ck/* thread died for this. There's a word for that. It's called "euthanasia".
