Appendix Operation Is Necessary To Stay Here: There are some rules for living anywhere in the world. For example, to live in India, you must have an Aadhaar number from a legal point of view. Foreigners must have passport of their country and visa from India to stay here. Similarly, other countries also have their own rules, but there is a settlement in Antarctica where if someone wants to live for a long time, it is necessary to get his appendix removed by operation.
Antarctica is a very cold continent. There is a settlement here called Vilas Las Estrellas. Here either scientists live for the purpose of research or the soldiers of Chilean Air Force and Army. The population of this settlement will be around 100 people. Although there are no facilities like a big village or a small town, but according to the need, general stores, banks, schools, small post offices and hospitals are built here.
That’s why the operation of appendix has to be done.
Here children get basic education in schools, but the treatment in hospitals is not that advanced. There is a big hospital in Antarctica, but it is about one thousand kilometers away from Vilas Las Estrellas village and this big hospital is also not like any multi-specialty hospital in the city. There are only a few doctors in the base hospital and they are also not experts. That’s why to avoid any kind of emergency, it is necessary for people here to get appendix operation done.
Wife is advised not to get pregnant
The life of the people here is very wonderful, the necessary goods are brought here by the army’s huge airplane C-130 Hercules. The average temperature of this area is minus 2.3 Celsius throughout the year. Those living here with families are advised to take care of one more thing that their wife should not become pregnant, especially those living in military bases are given this instruction, because there may be problems due to lack of medical facilities.
