Febre amarela: reflexões sobre a doença, as perspectivas para o século XXI e o risco da reurbanização Yellow fever: reflections on the disease, prospects for the century and risk of re-urbanization

Abstract

Neste artigo é realizada revisão dos principais aspectos fisiopatológicos, clínicos, epidemiológicos e laboratoriais da febre amarela no Brasil, e também se abordam as linhas gerais do tratamento da doença. São ainda analisados e discutidos os mais recentes surtos e epidemias de febre amarela ocorridos no Brasil, bem como as suas causas e as conseqüências de eventual reurbanização da doença no país, risco que cresce a cada ano à medida que crescem os índices de infestação de Aedes aegypti e a crescente dispersão e transmissão do dengue no país. Finalmente, são comentadas as perspectivas da febre amarela para o século XXI no Brasil.This paper reviews the main epidemiological, clinical, laboratorial and pathological aspects of yellow fever. It also discusses the general guidelines for the treatment of yellow fever, as well as the most recent outbreaks and epidemics of the disease in Brazil.
