Anne Frank was born on the 12th of June in the year 1929, she was a European Jewish Girl who was born in Germany and had become stateless since the year 1941.

What happened to Anne Frank during the war?
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.
What were the diseases during the Industrial Revolution?
Howdy. The diseases that were most commons during the IR were cholera, typhoid and tyfus. Living conditions in industrial towns were often poor; waste was left exposed, people had poor practices in hygiene, the exposed waste would get into drinking and bathing water supplies (yuck!) ect. This is what lead to most diseases and or bacterial infections. In some cases, Teburculosis and even small pox had been reported. Both are highly contagious and were spread with relative ease due to the close proximity some folks shared in their homes, or even coming into contact with one another at work/on the street. Hope I answered your question!
