No. Typhoid fever is caused by Salmonella bacteria in contaminated food and water, whereas yellow fever is a viral disease transmitted by mosquitoes.
There is no single pill to cure typhoid and yellow fever. You have a pill to cure typhoid but no pill to cure the yellow fever. Yellow fever is a viral infection and there is no specific pill for the same.

This is the name of a mosquito, and not even the right one. answer: According to "The Dictionary of Virology" by Brian Mahy, the scientific name for yellow fever is "Flavivirus febricis". its the Flaviviridae family (includes flavivirus, hepacivirus, and pestivirus. -Kiera
yphoid fever and malaria are caused by parasites; typhoid fever comes about after contact with Salmonella typhi bacteria. The symptoms of both these diseases also do vary to a certain extent. Mostly, a malaria infection will manifest itself through chills, fevers, nausea, vomiting and sometimes even diarrhoea. However, the symptoms of typhoid are stomach pain, skin rashes, extreme muscle weakness and fatigue along with high fever. A simple blood test (CBC) is enough to decide whether the person is suffering from malarial infection or not. However, in order to detect the presence of salmonella typhi widal test and typhidot are conducted.
Typhoid fever more prevalent in eastern countries. It is very uncommon in western countries. It is common in developing countries, where there is poor sanitation and not so good personal hygiene is the cause for the same.
The symptoms are same, but tend to be milder. Symptoms of typhoid are fever, (which goes up by step ladder pattern), weakness, headache. (Headache is very uncommon in children.)
It is very common practice in developing countries to treat the typhoid fever as a case of malaria, specially in the first week. You tell patient that he has malaria. He does not respond to your antimalarial treatment. Then you have no option but to tell the patient that he has got both malaria and typhoid at the same time. The fact is that typhoid is usually difficult to diagnose in the first week of fever. It is always better to rule out the malarial fever by giving the antimalarial treatment in first week of febrile illness.
They are not the same. They are caused by different mosquito-borne flavivirus organisms; an effective vaccine has been developed for the yellow fever virus, but not for the dengue virus. While yellow fever can be prevented, there is no cure for either disease once contracted. While extremely mild cases of either disease may present only fever and headache symptoms similar to influenza, in most cases the two diseases have different symptoms and different effects on the body. In addition to fever and headache, dengue fever typically begins with a bright red rash along with severe muscle and joint pain which cause it to be known as "break-bone fever"; vomiting and diarrhea are also typical. There is a dramatic decrease of platelets and white blood cells along with internal bleeding, similar to end-stage liver disease; the victim may lapse into shock. In addition to fever and headache, yellow fever typically begins with extreme fatigue and chills along with the fever; vomiting and constipation are usual, along with back pains and a reduction of heart rate and blood pressure, and the skin turns yellow from jaundice. After 3 days or so the symptoms improve, only to return with fierce intensity and accompanied by internal bleeding; the victim may become delirious and fall into a coma.
In the book "Fever 1793" by Laurie Halse Anderson, the frost brought cheer because it signaled the end of the yellow fever epidemic that was ravaging Philadelphia. The cooler temperatures slowed the spread of the disease and provided hope that the worst was over.
