There is no immunity and no vaccinations for Strep throat or Rheumatic Fever. This means that your child could get Strep throat more than once, each time putting them at risk of developing Rheumatic Fever.

People who have had Rheumatic Fever once are at a higher risk of getting it again. This is why it is very important to ensure they have regular antibiotic injections to prevent them from any more attacks.
