Yellow Fever
Dr. Ellen Schwartzbard, Obstetrician & Gynecologist at Baptist Health South Florida, considers yellow fever is such a serious illness and any person needs to avoid it, not only pregnant women.
The yellow fever is transmitted by the same mosquito that can spread Zika, Aedes aegypti, and vaccination is the best way to prevent it. Fortunately, she explains, there is not genetic problems associated with yellow fever. The problems concern more the woman's health, she says.
