The Paraiba state was selected for the study because in this region there are no yellow fever virus dissemination and therefore no NIP recommendation for people's routine vaccination. However, the NIP indicate yellow fever vaccination for individuals who are moving to areas with virus circulation. The study will take place in six (6) Basic Health Units of three (3) municipalities (2 units per municipality) in the state of Paraíba. The selected municipalities are: Alhandra, Caaporã and Conde. The study target population consisted of healthy children and adults of both sexes. Children must be between 9 months and 4 years,11months and 29 days; adults between 18 and 50 years. It will be eligible for the study, people who have never received the yellow fever vaccine checked in vaccine design and history and who agree to participate.
