Yellow Fever in Southwestern Liberia: Request for Information
-----------------------------------------------------------
ProMED-mail has heard from a reliable source that a case of yellow fever
with onset in December 2000 has been reported from Rivercress county in
southwestern Liberia. This is about 200 miles (300 km) from the location of
outbreak which began in August 2000 in the north. Perhaps the case has a
travel history of visiting that region. ProMED-mail would appreciate
further information on this case, and on the progress of the mass
vaccination campaign in Liberia.
