- W2516245265 abstract "The identification in China of 11 non-immunised travellers from west Africa with yellow fever elevated global attention on this vaccine preventable disease that puts about 1 billion people in 46 countries at risk.1Barrett AD Yellow Fever in Angola and Beyond—The problem of vaccine supply and demand.N Engl J Med. 2016; 375: 301-303Crossref PubMed Scopus (67) Google Scholar, 2World Health OrganizationMeeting of the Emergency Committee under the International Health Regulations (2005) concerning yellow fever.http://www.who.int/mediacentre/news/statements/2016/ec-yellow-fever/en/Date: May 19, 2016Google Scholar, 3World Health OrganizationYellow fever in Africa and South America, 2015.Wkly Epidemiol Rec. 2016; 91: 381-388PubMed Google Scholar Yellow fever is an acute mosquito transmitted viral haemorrhagic disease with a case fatality rate of 15–50% and no cure. On May 19, 2016, WHO declared yellow fever outbreaks a “serious public health concern”.2World Health OrganizationMeeting of the Emergency Committee under the International Health Regulations (2005) concerning yellow fever.http://www.who.int/mediacentre/news/statements/2016/ec-yellow-fever/en/Date: May 19, 2016Google Scholar The pattern of yellow fever epidemiology is changing with distinct large scale epidemics in Africa, sporadic outbreaks in Latin America, spillover transmission to Asia, and change from a “jungle cycle” where humans are incidental hosts to an “urban cycle” where Aedes aegypti bites could sustain transmission among humans.1Barrett AD Yellow Fever in Angola and Beyond—The problem of vaccine supply and demand.N Engl J Med. 2016; 375: 301-303Crossref PubMed Scopus (67) Google Scholar, 2World Health OrganizationMeeting of the Emergency Committee under the International Health Regulations (2005) concerning yellow fever.http://www.who.int/mediacentre/news/statements/2016/ec-yellow-fever/en/Date: May 19, 2016Google Scholar, 3World Health OrganizationYellow fever in Africa and South America, 2015.Wkly Epidemiol Rec. 2016; 91: 381-388PubMed Google Scholar By mid-July, the west Africa outbreaks alone have led to about 6000 suspected cases leading to 446 deaths.3World Health OrganizationYellow fever in Africa and South America, 2015.Wkly Epidemiol Rec. 2016; 91: 381-388PubMed Google Scholar These numbers are subject to surveillance, laboratory, and reporting challenges and the actual numbers may vary. In 2015, yellow fever vaccination coverage in 22 affected African countries varied from 45% to 94%, with only 12 countries reaching >80% coverage,3World Health OrganizationYellow fever in Africa and South America, 2015.Wkly Epidemiol Rec. 2016; 91: 381-388PubMed Google Scholar leading to persistent local transmission and posing a high risk of spread to neighbouring countries with porous borders and weak health systems. By Aug 18, in Angola, the mass vaccination campaign has only reached 31% of the target population. Of particular relevance in the current yellow fever outbreak is the convergence of three major gatherings this year—the Hajj, the Olympics, and the Paralympics—which attract participants from countries with diverse sociodemographics and levels of health system development. These events are occurring in regions with either the presence of the yellow fever vector and/or ongoing transmission, as in Latin America, or where the proportion of event participants from the yellow fever risk countries is considerable. For instance, in 2013, 14% of international Hajj pilgrims originated from the 46 yellow fever endemic countries. The proposed fractional dosing of the yellow fever vaccine to one-fifth of the standard dose of 0·5 mL as an interim strategy to address vaccine shortages is both challenging and controversial. It not only requires assuring that the supply of suitable syringes is widely available, it contradicts the WHO International Health Regulation requirement of a single full dose of the vaccine to obtain yellow fever vaccine certification.1Barrett AD Yellow Fever in Angola and Beyond—The problem of vaccine supply and demand.N Engl J Med. 2016; 375: 301-303Crossref PubMed Scopus (67) Google Scholar, 2World Health OrganizationMeeting of the Emergency Committee under the International Health Regulations (2005) concerning yellow fever.http://www.who.int/mediacentre/news/statements/2016/ec-yellow-fever/en/Date: May 19, 2016Google Scholar, 3World Health OrganizationYellow fever in Africa and South America, 2015.Wkly Epidemiol Rec. 2016; 91: 381-388PubMed Google Scholar Recent mass gatherings have successfully mitigated the transmission of emerging threats (such as the 2009 pH1N1 influenza pandemic, the 2012–15 MERS-CoV outbreak, and the 2014 Ebola outbreak) that posed distinct threats to health security.4Elachola H Gozzer E Zhuo J Memish ZA A crucial time for public health preparedness: Zika virus and the 2016 Olympics, Umrah, and Hajj.Lancet. 2016; 387: 630-632Summary Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (38) Google Scholar, 5Ebrahim SH Memish ZA Uyeki TM Khoja TA Marano N McNabb SJ Pandemic H1N1 and the 2009 Hajj.Science. 2009; 326: 938-940Crossref PubMed Scopus (66) Google Scholar Although vector control efforts, including those strengthened as a response to Zika virus transmission, may be robust, any shortfalls in yellow fever vaccination and effective vector control in aircrafts and mass gathering venues will enable viraemic vectors or travellers to facilitate the establishment of local transmission. Mass gathering organisers must assure community and individual level availability of vector repellents and encourage and monitor their use routinely. Beyond the mass gathering host countries, where adequate vectors and susceptible human populations are present, vigilance, access to a stockpile of vaccines, and risk communication are critical to minimise and contain sporadic outbreaks.
