Summary Introduction

Yellow fever is an endemic disease that means it is found in a particular climatic region or population. It is a type of viral disease which gets transmitted to the host (humans) with the help of several arthropod vectors (bats, lice, flies). Dengue fever is similar to yellow fever as it is also a type of viral disease caused by flavivirus with the same mode of transmission.
