[poppiesinaline]

Is tonsillitis contagious?

no, not afaik

isn't it a localised infection ?

i thought it was?might be wrong though!

try here

a couple of years ago my eldest dd had it really bad and got admitted to hosp.they put her in a side room away from other children.dont know if it was because of the risk of passing it on

my daughter had bacterial tonislitus and was told to stay off school

Ah thanks Jenum. That says it is contagious.
