Abstract


A viral disease spread by mosquitoes, yellow fever is most commonly found in tropical and subtropical regions, particularly in South America and Africa. The main vectors of transmission are Aedes and Haemagogus mosquitoes. Clinical manifestations might range from a simple, self-limiting feverish sickness to serious bleeding and liver damage. This exercise clarifies how yellow fever is evaluated and treated, emphasizing the importance of the interprofessional team in identifying and treating the illness.
