Giant Microbes, Sore Throat
SKU: 17149
|
Overview
Streptococcus bacteria cause about 15% of sore throats; viruses cause most of the rest!
It can be difficult to tell if your sore throat is being caused by strep or by a virus, but it is important to try. Viral sore throats can only be soothed with such remedies as lozenges, gurgling salt or vinegar, or drinking honey or peppermint tea. However, strep throats can be cued easily by taking antibiotics such as penicillin.
GIANTmicrobes® are stuffed animals that look like tiny microbes — only a million times actual size! They're humorous, educational, and fun! Each GIANTmicrobes® comes with an image and information about the real microbe it represents. They make great learning tools, as well as amusing gifts for anyone with a sense of humor. Collect them all!
