Anne Frank And Typhus's Death
Anne Frank was said to have died sometime in February or March of 1945. She passed away in Lower Saxony, Germany. The first concentration camp they were all sent to was called Camp Westbrook in the northern part of the Netherlands. Anne died from typhus, a terrible disease with purple rashes and fevers. Typhus was a very common disease to get in concentration camps due to the lack of cleanliness in them. Anne was transferred from camp to camp when she died of disease. Anne was only 15 years old when she passed, and she was one of more than one million kids that died in concentration camps. It is not known the exact date of her or Margot’s death. It was very common for the camps to not give mercy to anyone, no matter how young or old they were.
