Yellow Fever Vaccination: Essential Protection for International Travel

At Lichfield Travel Clinic, we are a registered Yellow Fever vaccination centre, making it simple and safe to get the protection you need.
Yellow Fever is a serious viral infection spread by mosquitoes in tropical regions. It can cause:
- High fever
- Jaundice (yellowing of the skin/eyes)
- Internal bleeding
- Organ failure in severe cases
There is no specific treatment, which makes vaccination vital.
