strep throat is an infection that coats your throat. It has nothing to do with tonsils.

Yes, it's still possible. However, I had my tonsils removed as a child and haven't had it since. I was constantly getting strep throat as a kid.

Strep throat (aka streptococcal pharyngitis) is a bacterial infection of the throat. Removing your tonsils may prevent you from future episodes of painful tonsillitis. However, it does not protect your throat from being infected again and you having strep throat.
