What Is Yellow Fever and Why Is Vaccination So Important?
Yellow fever is a serious viral haemorrhagic disease transmitted through the bite of infected Aedes and Haemagogus mosquitoes. The disease is found predominantly across tropical regions of Africa and South America. Symptoms range from fever, headache, and muscle aches in mild cases to severe liver damage, jaundice, and internal bleeding in the most serious presentations. There is no specific treatment for yellow fever once contracted, which makes prevention through vaccination the single most important step any traveller to a high-risk region can take.

Frequently Asked Question
Do I need a yellow fever vaccination if I am travelling from East Ham?
If your travel itinerary includes any country in the yellow fever endemic zones of sub-Saharan Africa or South America, you will almost certainly need a yellow fever vaccination. Many of these countries require proof of vaccination as a mandatory condition of entry.
How long before travel should I get my yellow fever jab?
It is recommended to receive your yellow fever vaccination at least ten days before departure. This allows sufficient time for your immune system to develop full protection and for your yellow fever certificate to become valid the certificate is technically only valid from ten days after the date of vaccination.
How much does yellow fever vaccination cost at Newmans Pharmacy?
Yellow fever vaccination is a private travel health service and is not available free of charge on the NHS. Our pricing is competitive and transparent, and includes both the vaccine and the official yellow fever certificate. Please call us on 020 8586 7007 or visit us at 524–526 Barking Rd, London E13 8QE for current pricing.
Is the yellow fever certificate valid for life?
Yes. Following a World Health Organisation ruling in 2016, the International Certificate of Vaccination or Prophylaxis (ICVP) for yellow fever is now considered valid for life after a single dose of the vaccine for most travellers. You no longer need a booster every ten years as was previously required.
Can I walk in for a yellow fever vaccination or do I need to book?
We strongly recommend booking an appointment for your yellow fever vaccination to ensure the vaccine is in stock and a travel health pharmacist is available to conduct your pre-vaccination consultation. You can book by calling 020 8586 7007, visiting 524–526 Barking Rd, London E13 8QE in person, or through our website at www.newmanspharmacy.co.uk.
