oh blast! Do you mean the Strep A bacterium thats in the news? I am suddenly hearing of adults getting it in increasing numbers on the local grape vine. Glad you’ve got appropriate treatment, rest up.

Not a virus - a bacterial infection which is why you have antibiotics (they don't work for viruses). As Snazzy says - the Strep A that is in the news?

Get well soon
