What is Yellow Fever?
A serious viral infection transmitted by mosquitoes in tropical regions of Africa and South America
Caused by a virus transmitted through the bite of infected Aedes or Haemagogus mosquitoes, primarily found in tropical regions of Africa and South America.
Symptoms include fever, headache, jaundice (yellowing of skin), muscle pain, nausea, and vomiting. Severe cases can cause organ failure.
There’s no specific treatment for yellow fever, but the vaccine provides excellent protection. A single dose offers lifetime immunity.
Found across sub-Saharan Africa and tropical South America, including popular destinations like Kenya, Brazil, Peru, and Colombia.
