Yellow Fever is a viral infection that mainly affects the liver but also causes heavy bleeding. The skin becomes jaundiced (yellow) as a result. It is still common in Africa and South America. The high fever associated with it can cause epilepsy. High fevers caused by other diseases can also cause epilepsy. This side effect usually doesn't remain after the person gets well. There is a vaccine for Yellow Fever. Yellow Fever, untreated, has a high death rate.
