WHO Collaborating Centers, or (by default) designated national laboratories, intervene at two levels in the surveillance of yellow fever : (1) upstream, through knowledge and analysis of risk factors linked to vectors and populations, including : collection of entomological data (surveillance of the sylvatic cycle, Kédougou, Senegal), measuring the risk of an outbreak in urban areas (quantity of larvae of Aedes aegypti), measuring the national immunity to yellow fever among human populations, developing and reflecting on the capacity to respond at a national level, and advising at the national level on strategies to control yellow fever ; and (2) downstream by furnishing an adapted, rapid response for the diagnosis of suspected cases of yellow fever including : detecting of specific IgM through immunocapture, following-up with virological or molecular (RT-PCR) confirmation, making available transportation and techniques of appropriate preparation of laboratory samples, accepting some of the expenses linked to epidemics, adapting of the surveillance system (based on a case definition). Yellow fever surveillance must be incorporated into the national system of detection and declaration of infectious diseases, but owing to its unique epidemiological aspects, which includes the possiblity of vaccination, a rapid and adapted response means being prepared.
