Vaccinations[edit | edit source]
In AT-villages, the fundamental vaccinations are to be given together with other primary medical care when a applicant for admission into the village has been approved. These vaccines will thus protect the person against that particular disease for his entire life. The repeating vaccinations however, will only be given for as long as the person remains in the AT-village (and thus contributes to the village). When the villager decides to leave the village, the repeating vaccinations are no longer given, meaning that after a while, protection against this disease will be lost for this villager. This method is used as it is the most sustainable one (as the AT-projects need to remain self-sustainable regarding financial costs) and as it is the most practical (villagers that leave the village can no longer be vaccinated by village personnel and should otherwise need to be done by official doctors, who demand greater fees).
