Seven months after her arrest, Anne Frank died of typhus in Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, within days of the death of her sister, Margot Frank.

Typhus is spread by body lice. Friends who saw her at Belsen described her as covered by lice. Her body has not been found, so this diagnosis is based on the testimony of a woman named IRMA SONNENBERG MENKEL, who was in the same barracks and held Anne in her arms as Anne was dying. She says: Typhus was a terrible problem, especially for the children. Of the 500 in my barracks, maybe 100 got it and most of them died. .. When Anne Frank got typhus I told her she could stay in the barracks, she didn't have to go to roll call.
