WHO no longer routinely requires a 10-yearly booster. A second dose may be considered for people who were vaccinated under the age of 2, women vaccinated while pregnant, people who were immunocompromised at the time of their first dose, or those at very high ongoing exposure — the pharmacist will advise based on your history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I have other vaccines at the same time?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLive vaccines such as MMR are best either given on the same day or at least 4 weeks apart from yellow fever to avoid blunting either response. Inactivated vaccines (such as hepatitis A, typhoid Vi, hepatitis B, flu) can be given at the same visit without affecting yellow fever protection.

Serious reactions (yellow-fever vaccine-associated viscerotropic or neurotropic disease) are very rare and the risk is higher in people over 60 receiving a first dose.
