You prevent yellow fever by preventing people from being bitten by an infected mosquito. You can do this to a degree by use of mosquito netting, mosquito repellent, etc. Historically, it was most effectively done by eliminating mosquito breeding ponds, thus reducing or eliminating the population of mosquitoes available to be infected.
An effective vaccine against yellow fever is also available.
