If someone's injected with cancer cells, they develop cancer. Could at least part of the increase in cancer be to do with people getting other people's cancer cells inside their bodies?

You might want to tell that to the experiment subjects who developed cancer after being injected with it, then, proving that cancer will take hold in a person if those cells end up in their body, just like if you’re injected with a live virus, it will try to take hold in the person's body.

Cancer cells are a bit like HIV in that they evade the immune system by releasing some chemical to trick it. Hence why in an infamous unethical experiment after the war, people injected with another person's cancer developed cancer. So even if it is another person's cancer cells, the cancer will metastasize in the body.
