I've been in close contact w boyfriend who has strep. will additional contact w him put me at greater risk? does it matter now?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes , Yes: If you are not already infected, continued contact will put you at greater risk. You may not be infected, so stay away while he gets on meds and recovers. You do not want strep. Good Luck --- be smart
