Strep throat germs, specifically the bacteria Streptococcus pyogenes, primarily live in the throats and nasal passages of infected individuals. They can be spread through respiratory droplets when an infected person coughs or sneezes, as well as through direct contact with infected surfaces. The bacteria can also survive on surfaces for a limited time, making it possible to contract the infection from contaminated objects.
