Viral Sore Throat. More than half of all sore throats are caused by viruses (known medically as viral pharyngitis). They are often the same viruses that cause the common cold, flu, a sinus infection (sinusitis), or other upper respiratory tract infections. Rhinovirus infections appear to be the most common reason for a sore throat.
Infections cause the majority of sore throats and are contagious. Infections are caused either by viruses such as the flu, the common cold, mononucleosis, or by bacteria such as strep, mycoplasma, or hemophilus.While bacteria respond to antibiotic treatment, viruses do not.
