Reply:In medical texts, it's called yellow fever just as in the lay press. If you live near New York, Philadelphia, Memphis, or Hampton Roads, the local historical society can probably show you some pretty impressive stuff, especially Memphis, that being one of the last big outbreaks in the US.

Reply:Yellow fever is caused by a virus and is not malaria. The type of virus is an Arbovirus from the family Flaviviridae. It is called yellow fever because it causes jaundice. It has other names like black vomit and American plague. It is a type of hemmorhagic illness.
