What is Yellow fever (Stamaril)?

Stamaril is a live attenuated yellow fever vaccine giving long-lasting, usually lifelong, protection from a single dose. It is the vaccine behind the International Certificate of Vaccination that some countries require at the border.

The condition it treats

Yellow fever is a mosquito-borne viral haemorrhagic fever of tropical Africa and South America with no specific treatment and significant mortality; vaccination is both personal protection and, for many itineraries, an entry requirement.

How the service runs on Scripter

Patients book online, complete the pre-consultation questionnaire, and the guided pathway walks the practitioner through the yellow fever protection for travel consultation with the screening and counselling steps built in. The supply decision, the record and any GP notification are produced in the same flow, documented against the exact protocol version in force.

Training and eligibility requirements.

Who can deliver this service, and who it can be delivered to. The governing PGD document defines the definitive inclusion, exclusion and supply criteria; the Scripter consultation pathway enforces them, and every consultation is documented against the protocol version it ran under.

Yellow fever (Stamaril) PGD questions

Does the pharmacy need special status for yellow fever?+

Yes. Yellow fever is given only at registered Yellow Fever Vaccination Centres with specifically trained staff; the pathway records the certificate details the border officer will want to see.

Is one dose really enough for life?+

For most travellers a single dose now counts as lifelong under International Health Regulations; the consultation identifies the special groups where a booster is still advised.

Who should not have this vaccine?+

It is live: significant immunosuppression, certain age groups and thymus disorders are excluded or referred for specialist advice, which the screening step enforces.
