    Abstract:
    For the purpose of BCG revaccination of the young people (aged 13-30 years) having a negative tuberculin response, 3 methods of vaccination were practised, including working as a team, launching an expedition and functioning within a residential area. The choice of the method required is dictated by the local conditions and the given task. A high level of tuberculosis infection was recorded, especially among the risk groups in relation to this disease. The circumstances to be taken into account when planning the tuberculosis prevention measures, i. e. BCG revaccination, are defined.
