Description: Microscopic footage of white blood cells and bacteria from my throat during an infection. I deduced I had Group-C streptococcus laryngitis based on the following criteria: *Contact with someone who had a strep infection *Sore throat and difficulty speaking, infection lasted about a week *I had gray spots on my tongue although none on my tonsils *Gram positive streptococcus isolated from the white spots on my tongue *Streptococcus was beta-hemolytic and resistant to bacitracin and Sulfamethoxazole / Trimethoprim My education is not in medicine so I could be wrong. Camera - Nikon D3300 Microscope - Leica ATC 2000 Microscope magnification of each shot is shown in the bottom right hand corner.
