Is it possible that the cigars in my small humidor gave me strep throat?
As mentioned bellow, the cigars themselves would not give you strep. However, they can greatly contribute to the ease of becoming infected with the causative bacteria, streptococcus. One of the natural defenses you body has against respiratory infections are thousands of microscopic cilia that line the throat and airway. These cilia beat in a concerted whip like motion that serve to slowly move particles from the lower regions of the airway up to the mouth where they are coughed or breathed out. In a healthy individual, many potentially infectious bacteria may be removed in this way before having the chance to establish an infection. However, a major reason that smokers are at greater risk for such infection is that the inhaled smoke can damage the cilia making it harder for the body to remove the streptococcus and making it easier for the bacteria to set up an active infection in the throat. So if you want to prevent catching strep next cold season, it wouldn't hurt to go easy on the cigars!
