Yellow fever vaccine can prevent yellow fever. Yellow fever vaccine is given only at designated vaccination centers. After getting the vaccine, you should be given a stamped and signed “International Certificate of Vaccination or Prophylaxis” (yellow card). This certificate becomes valid 10 days after vaccination and is good for 10 years. You will need this card as proof of vaccination to enter certain countries. Travelers without proof of vaccination could be given the vaccine upon entry or detained for up to 6 days to make sure they are not infected.

Indian travelers returning from designated countries in Africa and South America are required to have yellow fever vaccination done (ideally) ten days before they travel. Immigration Officers at indian airports will demand for a certificate showing one is vaccinated against yellow fever. The vaccination is valid for ten years. Lack of vaccine certification means seven days spent at the quarantine centre.

Unfortunately, due to bureaucratic red tape and governmental apathy and indifference, most of these centers have restricted working hours, need for prior appointment and rude staff whose attitude leaves a lot to be desired.
Hence, many enterprising private doctors have been providing this vaccination to people needing the yellow fever vaccine. This vaccine is called STAMARIL(manufactured by Sanofi Aventis at France) and imported under license of Drug Controller Authority of India.
When provided along with the WHO International Certificate of Vaccination, the vaccination is internationally accepted with a validity of 10 years.

Vaccination can be done in any hospital or doctor. The important thing is to get a certificate that is valid abroad. Hope Hospital issues a valid certificate .
