Explanation : Unfortunately it happens and called strep carrier. Difficult to rid of this especially in winter time. What really helpful is : gargle the mouth with hypertonic saline: 1 teaspoon of salt in 8 oz of water Or camomile tea, ocean beach for vacation. And radical treatment is removing of tonsils.
