I caught Strep throat twice in the past 9 weeks, I had to lose lots of hours of work just to recover.
Now that I watched this video, I know my health to my joints are in trouble and there’s nothing I can do about it.

I have strep but at the start I never knew I had strep

I want to know how it’s formed and from where do you get it, what causes it to start to form is the real question!!!

Thankyou I needed to know if I should go to work Tomarrow and maybe I’ll take the day off because I have strep throat and I work with children.

Other streptococcus species are part of what makes yogurt (actual yogurt not chemicals) and other fermented cultures. And likely eating those makes one more resilient to strep

Always have your own food 🥘 and drinks 🥤

That did not tell me how you get it other than how it's transferred
