There are actually a few different types of mosquitos that can transmit yellow fever, but the most common is Aedes aegypti.
Yellow fever is a disease spread by the bite of a female mosquito. The virus that causes Yellow Fever is an RNA virus of the genus Flavivirus.
the virus responsible for yellow fever requires an intermediate vector, a mosquito, which carries the virus from one host to another.
Type your answer here... Yellow fever is found only in parts of South America and Africa. People get yellow fever from the bite of an infected female mosquito. The mosquito injects the yellow fever virus into the bite. Symptoms start 3 to 6 days after being bitten by an infected mosquito. Yellow fever is diagnosed by a blood test.
You get yellow fever from the bite of an infected female mosquito. The mosquito injects the yellow fever virus into the bite. It was most common in the 1850s-1950s. After mid-20th century, the availability of effective pesticides and of a vaccine greatly reduced the incidence of Yellow Fever.
"Yellow fever" is caused by the Flavivirus, a virus which is spread by the Aedes aegypti mosquito. humans and monkeys are most commonly affected. When one of these mosquitoes bites someone who is already infected with yellow fever, the virus goes into the mosquito's bloodstream and moves around its body before it settles in the mosquito's salivary glands. Because it now resides in the salivary glands, when this mosquito bites another human or monkey, the virus then goes into that person or monkey's bloodstream, causing Yellow fever.
yellow fever originates from Africa in monkeys. the virus is transmitted to people when a monkey carrying the virus is bitten by a female mosquito and that mosquito bites a person, transferring the virus over. the virus can not be spread from person to person by germs. only by mosquitos or something like that.
Aedes Mosquito can cause Dengue Fever.malariaan itchy arm "Itchy arm" is not a disease- but Yellow Fever, Malaria, and West Nile Virus ARE.Dengue fever and yellow fever
Yes. You can catch the yellow fever by: 1. getting bitten by a mosquito. 2. getting the Combat worm. The stickman's vomit contains yelllow fever, together mixed with ink. 3.standing in a desert for 9 hours
The AIDS virus cannot survive in a mosquito's system. However, viruses like West Nile, Yellow fever and Malaria can.
Coquillettidia fuscopennata Why do people answer questions they clearly know nothing about? 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
an infected monkey is bitten by a tree-hole breeding mosquito. This mosquito acquires the virus, and can pass the virus on to any number of other monkeys that it may bite
No the virus lives in the gut of mosquitos. but if a mosqito bites the other person and then sucks your blood some time later there might be enough virus to infect you... The yellow fever virus is mainly transmitted through the bite of the yellow fever mosquito Aedes aegypti, but other mosquitos can also serve as a vector for the virus. Like other Arboviruses which are transmitted via mosquitos, the yellow fever virus is taken up by a female mosquito which sucks the blood of an infected person. Viruses thus reach the stomach of the mosquito, and if the virus concentration is high enough, the virions can infect epithelial cells and replicate there. From there they reach the haemocoel (the blood system of mosquitos) and from there the salivary glands. When the mosquito sucks blood the next time, it injects its saliva into the wound, and thus the virus reaches the blood of the bitten person. There are also indications for a vertical infection of the yellow fever virus with A. aegypti, i.e. the transmission from a female mosquito to her clutch and thus the larva. This infection of vectors without a previous blood meal seems to play a role in single, sudden breakouts of the disease.
