Research on how to cure yellow fever was conducted by many independent doctors including my ancestor Dr. Samuel A. Mudd. Though one of the most famous doctors known for researching Yellow Fever was a Cuban doctor named Carlos Finlay. Now for your question, William Gorgas, a physician was most well known for helping fight yellow fever in Panama.
Dr Gorgas.
yellow fever is caused by disease carrying mosquitoes called Coquillettidia fuscopennata there are shots you can get to prevent yellow fever in your body but they had not invented it in 1793
Deborah Sampson did not contract yellow fever as a result of her service in the Revolutionary War. While she served as a soldier disguised as a man, there are no historical records indicating she suffered from yellow fever during or after the war. Her military service was marked by hardships, but yellow fever was not one of them.

The discovery of yellow fever in Cuba led to the understanding that the disease was transmitted by mosquitoes, prompting the implementation of mosquito control measures in Panama during the construction of the Panama Canal. This ultimately helped to reduce the spread of yellow fever and allowed for the successful completion of the canal.
William C. Gorgas
There were normal dangers of construction. They had heavy machinery moving about, the danger of large mud and dirt slides caving in on them. One big difficulty was malaria. Many workers died of yellow fever.
