Yellow fever is caused by a virus transmitted through the bites of infected female mosquitoes, with an incubation period of 3-6 days. Symptoms include headache, fever and muscle aches initially, and potentially progressing to jaundice, liver failure, and black vomit. While most cases are mild, the disease can be fatal for around 3% of infected individuals in the second more severe phase if left untreated.
