OBJECTIVE: To evaluate contraindications and precautions for the yellow fever vaccine (YFV) in risk populations. METHODS: A literature review was conducted by searching PubMed for "yellow fever vaccine" and "adverse events" (AEs); 207 studies were found, and 43 of them met the inclusion criteria and were included in a systematic review. RESULTS: do not have increased risk of AEs from YFV. Egg allergy vaccination protocols seem to provide a safe way to immunize these patients. CONCLUSIONS: YFV safety has been confirmed based on data from many vaccination campaigns and multiple studies. AEs seem more frequent after a first-time dose, mainly in risk groups, but this review evaluated YFV in several of the same risk groups and the vaccine was found to be safe in most of them.
