Yellow fever Because of this sylvatic cycle, yellow fever cannot be eradicated except by eradicating the mosquitoes that serve as vectors. In Africa, a third infectious cycle known as "savannah cycle" or intermediate cycle, occurs between the jungle and urban cycles. Different mosquitoes of the genus "Aedes" are involved. In recent years, this has been the most common form of transmission of yellow fever in Africa. Concern exists about yellow fever spreading to southeast Asia, where its vector "A. aegypti" already occurs. After transmission from a mosquito, the viruses replicate in the lymph nodes and infect dendritic cells in particular. From there,
Rat-bite fever underarm. Symptoms generally appear within 2 to 10 days of exposure to the infected animal. It begins with the fever and progresses to the rash on the hands and feet within 2 to 4 days. Rash appears all over the body with this form, but rarely causes joint pain. Two types of Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic bacteria can cause the infection. Rat-bite fever transmitted by the Gram-negative coiled rod "Spirillum minus" (also known as "Spirillum minor") is more rare, and is found most often in Asia. In Japan, the disease is called "sodoku". Symptoms do not manifest for two to four
