The Correct Answer is A
40% of throat swabs yield no growth, 30% are streptococcal, 20 % viral and 10% other organisms including haemophilus. The decrease in incidence of rheumatic fever and glomerulonephritis predates the introduction of antibiotics and is ascribed to the raised standards of cleanliness and housing conditions. Tonsillar exudate in an under 15 year old is more typical of streptococcal, in an over 15 year old of glandular fever. However the appearances and the presence of lymphadenopathy are not characteristics of any specific type of infection.
