With treatment, usually around 2 or 3 days.

What does yellow fever do?

Yellow Fever begins with a severe headache, sensitivity to light and a sense of apprehension (that something bad is going to happen). Then the fever begins and terrible body aches set in along with extreme dizziness. The victim then begins to vomit black blood uncontrollably. The tongue swells and the face flushes as the fever continues to rise. Some victims will begin to gradually recover at this stage. Others will see a continued high fever with delirium and heart palpitations. For some, the fever will suddenly drop and the person will feel very normal, as if they have recovered, but this almost always means the victim is going to die. During this 'normal' phase, any sudden exertion will almost always cause a heart attack in the victim and any food eaten will cause organ failure. After a short while during which the patient feels perfectly healthy, the fever will suddenly return with violent convulsions. The organs in the body shut down and just before the victim dies, jaundice turns the skin and eyes a deep golden-yellow, thus the name 'yellow fever'.
