i don't think so, cuz my doctor told me if i got strep throat a certain number of times in a year, i would have to get my tonsils out. Which, I'm guessing would stop, or lower the risk of getting strep.

Something that I did not know until I took anatomy is that you have 3 sets of tonsils, when a tonsilectomy is done, only one pair is removed.

Yes, I had my tonsils removed when younger and still got the nasty bacteria! Just be very careful now with flesh eating disease! Antibiotics are not working as well as they used to. Remember the guy who used to write the TV show "The Muppets"? He died of strep throat that was a mutation of this streptoccoci bacteria!
