Yellow Fever Outbreak in Colombia Prompts Declaration of Public Health Emergency

Colombia is experiencing a growing outbreak of yellow fever, prompting the government to declare a nationwide public health emergency on Wednesday (16 April), according to British news agency Reuters.

Health Minister Guillermo Jaramillo stated that the outbreak has been increasing since last year. At least 74 confirmed cases and 34 deaths have been reported so far.

The Health Minister noted that the situation is most alarming in the central-western region of Tolima, where 22 cases have been identified so far.
