The French in the 1880s had attempted to build a canal across Panama, this catastrophic failure, resulted in the deaths of over 22,000 individuals who were working on the canal project due to malaria and yellow fever. The French eventually stopped their attempt on the project in 1889.
The disease takes on this name because of the horrendous attack on the body that may lead to liver failure and result in a yellowish tone to the skin.
