- About the product
If you are traveling to regions where yellow fever virus is present, it is advisable to get vaccinated.
Yellow fever can be fatal. There is no medication to combat the yellow fever virus – the treatment is only symptomatic and helps the body fight the infection. Therefore, before traveling to endemic regions, it is worth getting vaccinated against yellow fever, which usually provides lifelong protection.
Who should get vaccinated against yellow fever?
Individuals traveling to countries where the disease is present should get vaccinated, such as:
- South American countries, including Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Peru, and Venezuela;
- African countries, such as Angola, Ghana, Cameroon, Congo, Nigeria, and Tanzania;
- Other countries that require an international certificate of yellow fever vaccination upon entry.
Important information
The vaccination consists of a single dose, which provides protection against yellow fever for at least 10 years, and often for life. According to recommendations from the WHO Strategic Advisory Group of Experts on Immunization (SAGE), booster doses are not necessary.
The vaccination against yellow fever should be planned at least 10 days before traveling to a region where the disease is present to ensure full protection and the validity of the international vaccination certificate. The vaccine is administered subcutaneously or intramuscularly. Inform your doctor if you are allergic to any component of the vaccine.
