I think most hospitals in the USA especially those in areas with a decent rate of poverty contain ICU's(Intensive Care Units) for things like this. Its basically like in the movies where they put the person in an air tight tent.
streptococcus; commonly called Strept Throat in the streptococcus pneumoniae form is usually a Virus that infects the Mucous glands in the mouth and throat. In very rare cases it can infect the skin, tissue, or muscle of the patient. Some and I think most forms of it have vaccines(antibiotics).
