Introduction: Yellow fever is an infectious non-contagious disease, transmitted to humans through the bite of hematophagous insects, with an extrinsic incubation period, so that the virus reproduces in its tissues. In 1937, after years of research and countless tests with different strains of the yellow fever virus, a vaccine was finally discovered. Since then, vaccination is the most important way to prevent yellow fever. In high-risk areas, where vaccination coverage is low, rapid outbreak recognition and control using mass vaccination is critical to avoiding epidemics. Objectives: This study aimed to verify the vaccination in the period from 2013 to 2017, in the city of Uberlândia, through the DATASUS SIPNI platform and to identify if there is a deficiency of registration in the platform regarding the vaccination against yellow fever in the city of Uberlândia in the period from 2013 to 2017. Method: This study follows a quantitative approach of descriptive and exploratory character. It seeks to investigate the importance of the vaccination coverage of the Yellow Fever vaccine in the city of Uberlândia - MG through the registration web site of the DataSUS SIPNI in the period from 2013 to 2017, comprising a period of 5 years. Results The total number of vaccinated patients in the five-year period was 138,692 (37,678 - Blockade, 52,591 -DU and 48,423-DI), representing 20.5% of the population registered in the city of Uberlândia / MG. Conclusion: The data obtained through the vaccination survey of the city in a period of 5 years through the platform DATASUS SIPNI, totals 138,692, which is equivalent to ¼ of the local population. What makes us think about the coverage of yellow fever vaccine in the municipality, for a city of more than 600,000 inhabitants, the estimated value of protected people goes far beyond what one has.
