The spread of diseases such as Typhus at concentration camps during the Holocaust was obviously not the result of failed or derelict management. Rather, it was the result of a deliberate Nazi effort to make disease spread, and the body count rise with less effort. No one faults the Nazis for failing to have an adequate medical staff on hand at Bergen-Belsen — we fault them for deliberately murdering millions of people.

Ultimately, Anne Frank was not killed by Typhus or any other disease — she was murdered by Nazi Germany.
