Overview
Primary Prevention
Primary prevention of pharyngitis depends mainly on good hand washing and preventing the spread of oral secretions.[1] There are certain vaccines available for Measles which are effective in prevention and vaccines for RSV and parainfluenza viruses are currently under development. These vaccines could have a significant effect on the population's health, particularly on that of the youngest children. Certain adenoviral vaccines have been used with some degree of success, mostly in military personnel.[1]
