The YouTube video "SÉRIE DESTAQUES 2018: FEBRE AMARELA - Jornal Minas" discusses the impact of the yellow fever outbreak in Minas Gerais in 2018, which resulted in 178 deaths. Despite efforts to increase vaccination rates, the population's reluctance to cooperate has left vaccination rates below recommended levels, partly due to fake news and misinformation circulating in some municipalities. The closure of parks like Mangabeiras Park in Belo Horizonte and personal stories of individuals affected by the disease emphasize the challenges faced due to lack of proper vaccination and preventive measures. A warning from the Ministry of Health about a potential resurgence of yellow fever in 2019 highlights the importance of raising awareness and launching new campaigns to educate at-risk populations and prevent another tragedy like that of 2018.
