Yellow fever Vaccination Adverse Effects You should be Aware of

Yellow Fever Vaccine Side Effects


The vaccine against yellow fever was discovered by Max Theiler, in 1937. He was awarded the prestigious Nobel Prize in Medicine.

The 17D vaccine is economical and also safe.

Adverse Effects of Yellow fever Vaccination

Side effects of this vaccine

Immunization helps increase immunity against yellow fever within about seven days. Vaccination is essential for people working in tropical forest areas, or for people traveling to endemic areas of yellow fever. About 95% of people who receive the vaccine become immune to yellow fever after vaccination. There have been very few cases of serious side effects of the yellow fever vaccine. After vaccination, it is assumed that blood should not be donated for 14 days. Most people do not realize the side effects of the yellow fever vaccine.
Yellow fever Side effects of vaccines YF-Vax or yellow fever vaccine is an effective preventive measure taken to prevent the development of the disease in children and adults. For the vaccine to work, 9-month-olds will be exposed to small amounts of the virus, so the body develops immunity against it. Like all other vaccines, this vaccine does not in any way treat the disease, it just prevents it. In case one travels to an area where yellow fever is endemic, it is a must to be vaccinated 10 days before the arrival of the location. Although it is effective in the prevention of yellow fever, yellow fever-Vax has its own side effects. You should be well informed of these side effects in case medical attention is required.
The treatment of the yellow fever vaccine side effects is as important as its identification.

Slight side effects

About 25% of people who receive the yellow fever vaccine, suffer from mild to high fever, and a body ache. The redness and swelling in the area where the vaccine is placed is quite natural. These side effects disappear in a week.

Serious side effects


Around 0.0018% of people (a person of 55,000) can develop an allergic reaction to components of the vaccine, mainly an allergy to eggs. So, people who have been diagnosed with an allergy to eggs should consult with the doctor before vaccination. All components of the vaccine must be checked.

About a person of 125,000 (0.0008%) may suffer damage to the nervous system. Newborn babies, babies or those adults who have a weak immune system are very likely to suffer from a neurological disease that involves confusion, muscle weakness, paralysis, loss of sensation, or encephalitis (inflammation of the brain that leads to head pain, fever, fatigue, seizures, loss of memory, etc.)
About 1 person in 250,000 (0.0004%) may be the victim of an organ failure. Vaccination can be fatal for more than half of these victims. It should be noted, that such serious side effects have never been observed after a booster dose, which is administered every 10 years for those at risk. People belonging to the group of 60 years of age and above are more likely to suffer from organ failure after vaccination. So, they should be examined by a doctor before vaccination.
Sometimes, the symptoms of vaccination against yellow fever result in the vaccinated person. This condition is known as YEL-AVD. It is believed that certain genetic factors are responsible for the development of YEL-AVD symptoms. The development of YEL-AVD also depends on the ability of the virus in the vaccine to cause the disease.

 The Yellow Fever Signs and Symptoms as well as the Treatment is described in detail in this article.

Vaccination against yellow fever is mandatory to enter in some countries. Pregnant women, nursing mothers and babies should be exempt from vaccination against yellow fever. Children and adults who belong to the age group of 9 months to 59 years should be vaccinated, if they are traveling or living in endemic areas of yellow fever. Laboratory technicians who handle samples of blood or urine from patients diagnosed with yellow fever should also be vaccinated for the protection of their lives.
Remember, a vaccine is like a medicine. Each one takes the medications that come with the side effects. Some medications can cause serious or life-threatening side effects. Vaccination is the best way to avoid death from yellow fever and the chances of death due to the side effects of the yellow fever vaccine are extremely low. The best way is to check with your doctor as soon as you notice any symptoms. Be careful. Most people always ask How Much Does Yellow Fever Vaccine Cost?
