I got Strep last week for the first time in my life. The doctor was surprised. Apparently most people stop getting Strep once they’re in middle school.
Lots of people carry it asymptomatically, which is how it spreads. Its not a moral failing on your end. If you were a carrier already, it may be a sign that your immune system had a downturn for a while. Or you may have contracted one from someone else which was slightly different and your immune system has to update it’s adaptive response to the new variant
One of my coworkers without children (I think she is in her early 40s) got strep last year and she was out for a whole week! That shit is no joke! I also don’t hear much about adults getting it (especially when they don’t interact with kids) but I guess it happens! You doing better now?

Yeah, but shit is persistent! I lost my voice entirely for two days.
