Enhanced yellow fever inspections in China
In a response to ongoing outbreaks of yellow fever in South America and Africa, China has strengthened its quarantine inspection requirements to prevent the virus being carried to China by seagoing vessels.
Yellow fever is a mosquito-borne disease with the potential to cause severe health implications. It is found mainly in tropical areas of Africa and Central and South America. Although significant progress has been made in combatting this disease and there is a very effective vaccine that can be used to prevent it, recent reports from the World Health Organization (WHO) describes serious outbreaks of the disease in Nigeria and Brazil. In response to the reported outbreaks, the Chinese quarantine authorities have implemented an enhanced inspection regime in the country’s ports in an attempt to prevent the spread of the virus by seagoing vessels.
