In the Brazilian case yellow fever is indeed endemic and people may be exposed to it without it showing in passport entry and exit stamps 

So.. Not sure about your case but this is strongly recommended

Hello,
Vaccination certificates can also be used in "tit for tat" diplomacy (your
country says my country has X disease, so my country says your country has
it too) as I discovered, nearly to my cost, last year on the way home from
a meeting by a rather circuitous route.
At least a yellow fever vaccination lasts for 10 years :-)
