A simple practical formula for the shear viscosity coefficient of Yukawa fluids is presented. This formula allows estimation of the shear viscosity in a very extended range of temperatures, from the melting point to $\simeq 100$ times the melting temperature. It demonstrates reasonable agreement with the available results from molecular dynamics simulations. Some aspects of the temperature dependence of the shear viscosity and diffusion coefficients on approaching the fluid-solid phase transition are discussed.
