Why does one get strep throat after mono?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Friends, family, etc: One gets strep throat AFTER mononucleosis for the same reason one gets strep BEFORE mono... friends, family, coworkers, etc... Strep is caused by a bacteria, transmitted by close contact such as between family members. Mono is caused by a virus, also transmitted by close contact. Both are common human conditions, which means a person can get one before the other or both at the same time.
