Flavivirus in Brazil

Of the 48 cases of yellow fever in Brazil, 13 people have died since December, despite the availability of a safe and effective vaccine. In response, Brazilian authorities have suspended exporting any more vaccine until their outbreak is under control. Also, tourists have been warned to get vaccinated before visiting areas where the mosquitoes are concentrated, such as rural areas and national parks.
