Yellow Fever Vaccine
Yellow fever is a serious disease caused by a virus and transmitted by infected mosquitoes in certain areas of the world. For this reason, yellow fever vaccine is recommended or required for travelers to these areas. While vaccinating against yellow fever is the best protection against developing the disease, other precautions should also be made to avoid mosquito bites.
Some countries require proof of yellow fever vaccination before allowing travelers into their country, or may detain travelers for up to six days to make sure they are not infected with the virus. Individuals who are infected with yellow fever virus usually need to be hospitalized and have severe symptoms of fever, body aches, fatigue, yellowing of the skin and eyes, organ failure, bleeding from different body sites, shock, and death. Some people may show no signs or symptoms after infection. Yellow fever virus is only found in certain areas of the world, mostly in sub Saharan Africa and parts of South America.
Between 1970 and 2011 there were a total of nine cases of yellow fever in the United States and Europe from travelers to West Africa and South America. Of the nine infected, all were unvaccinated and eight died. Yellow fever vaccine is required by certain countries in order to enter. Yellow fever vaccine is also recommended for:
- Travelers between 9 months and 59 years of age who will be traveling to of living in a region where yellow fever exists.
- Health care and laboratory workers who may be exposed to yellow fever virus.
