There is no mention of the certificates issued to people who have had the vaccinations on this page. Smartse (talk) 21:58, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That's exactly the reason why there aren't any biz-fi (or flash-fi) satricial works against that kind of travel-related vax, anyway. --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 03:01, 8 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

New section on global supply of YF vaccine

I'm thinking about creating a section on global supply of YF vaccine, starting with this recent publication relating to the current outbreak in Angola and possible global spread. You'll have to register with the Lancet to get this, but the article is free. juanTamad (talk) 00:23, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ten days or one month?

The summary says a person becomes immune a month after having the vaccine. But then the article goes on and says one should get the vaccine ten days prior to traveling. Which one is correct? Or if both are correct, what makes for the difference?

Ref 1 WHO states. "YF virus induces a rapid immune response with IgM antibodies appearing during the first week after infection. IgM antibody levels peak during the second week, then decline over the next 1–2 months but may last for several years."10 That;s the basis for the ten days recommendation. from the reference cited by WHO the median is 11 days postvaccination, range 9–14, so the statement is correct but confusing, the 99% is including outliers, probably better to revise.

Vaccine Disinformation

I just am reading about a serious fake news problem in Brazil^[1] where rumors of fatal vaccine reactions, mercury preservatives, and government conspiracies have reportedly surfaced^[2]; any place in the article for some information about this? Seems it would be in the public interest but apparently there's not a lot of data out there to speak of as far as what exactly is going on.^[1]

Map wrongly included France mainland

The map that showed France mainland as having partial risk of Yellow Fever and requiring Yellow Fever vaccination, is completely false. Only their overseas territories and dependencies have partial risk and require vaccinations. France mainland has no requirements for Yellow Fever vaccination, at all. Could this map be altered accordingly, please? Leesjy2k (talk) 19:32, 1 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
