Yellow Fever Vaccine

Yellow fever is a serious viral infection transmitted by mosquitoes. It cannot be transmitted through close contact with someone who has it.

Yellow fever (YF) virus symptoms include:

A high temperature (38C or above)

Nausea and/or vomiting

Muscle pain and backache

Although most people make a full recovery after three or four days, over half of those who develop more serious symptoms such as bleeding from the mouth, nose or eyes, vomiting blood or blood in poo end up dying.

YF is found in most of sub-Saharan Africa, most of South America, parts of Central America, Caribbean.

Prevention

Those visiting YF risk areas should practice meticulous mosquito bite avoidance.
