The female mosquito (Aedes aegypti) is a main reservoir for the yellow fever virus which acts as a vector for the yellow fever. The mosquitoes infect mainly humans and other mammals. The clinical features of the yellow fever involve high fever, internal bleeding, cell death of liver and kidney cells, and hemorrhagic conditions may occur.
