The living conditions were awful with lice etc. In early May 45, 400 prisoners a day were dying of typhus in Dachau. They were burnt down to try and limit the spread of disease. Many prisoners were dusted with DDT to kill the lice, which we would view with horror today, but at the time it probably saved thousands of lives. Least we forget.
