i think tonsiitis is specific to humans so they should be fine but usual hygiene measures should apply
cornsnakes, ratsnakes, bullsnakes, boas and day geckos

Welcome to the forum.
If you're really worried you could wear a surgical mask to prevent breathing germs over the snake!

I was thinking about this a while back... is it wise to handle your snake when ill (ie cold/flu etc)?
