CDC Vaccine Alert: Yellow Fever Vaccine Shortage
|
YF-Vax, the only yellow fever vaccine licensed in the United States, is out of stock until the end of 2018. If you’re planning travel to Africa or Central or South America, you may need yellow fever vaccine for your trip. Sanofi Pasteur has worked with CDC and FDA to provide travelers with an alternate vaccine, Stamaril, until YF-Vax is again available. Sites offering Stamaril are limited. Prepare for your trip by visiting the CDC website for sites offering the Stamaril alternative. |
