How To Treat Yellow Fever

Drink Plenty Of Fluids

Fever and vomiting can lead to dehydration for yellow fever patients. Dehydration can be particularly serious for older adults and young children with this disease. In the most severe cases, dehydration can lead to kidney and urinary problems, hypovolemic shock, and seizures. Patients should drink plenty of fluids to prevent these issues.
