Overview

What is Yellow Fever Virus?

Yellow fever is a mosquito-borne flaviviral haemorrhagic fever endemic to parts of Africa and South America; severe cases progress to jaundice, bleeding and organ failure.

It is preventable with the highly effective 17D live vaccine. Anti-YFV serology and recombinant envelope/NS1 antigens support diagnostics, vaccine immunogenicity and host-response research.

Transmission & symptoms

Yellow fever virus (YFV) is a mosquito-borne flavivirus endemic to parts of Africa and South America. Illness ranges from mild fever to severe disease with jaundice, haemorrhage and organ failure; the 17D live-attenuated vaccine is highly effective.

Diagnosis & serology

Diagnosis uses RT-PCR early and anti-YFV IgM/IgG serology (with recombinant envelope/NS1 antigens), interpreted alongside vaccination history and flavivirus cross-reactivity.

Research applications

Research tools support YFV serodiagnosis, 17D vaccine immunogenicity and the host inflammatory/metabolic response to infection.

FAQs

Yellow Fever Virus — frequently asked questions

Is yellow fever vaccine-preventable?
Yes — the 17D live-attenuated vaccine gives durable, often lifelong protection and is central to control.
How is yellow fever diagnosed?
RT-PCR in early infection and anti-YFV IgM/IgG serology later, interpreted with vaccination history and flavivirus cross-reactivity in mind.
Where is yellow fever found?
In tropical parts of Africa and South America, transmitted by Aedes and Haemagogus mosquitoes.
