The main function of tonsils is to trap germs (bacteria and viruses) which you may breathe in. Proteins called antibodies produced by the immune cells in the tonsils help to kill germs and help to prevent throat and lung infections. That would include the Flu and Covid.
I don't know if doctors still routinely remove tonsils, but if they're not causing problems, it's a really stupid thing to do & may account for the lack of resistance we have to disease.
And we should trust everything doctors say?
