Farmacie v ghettu Terezín

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Viewed through the prism of the history of pharmacy, the life stories of the pharmacists serving in the Terezín Ghetto constitute a hitherto unexplored subject, just as the system of supplying the Ghetto with medicaments, their distribution and the rules of local pharmacotherapy. Pharmacy, or probably just storage of medicaments, formed the fixed component of the Ghetto’s health system. Its Health-care Department launched its activities under highly improvised conditions, but thanks to maximum efforts exerted by the imprisoned medical personnel the pharmacy eventually grew into a large and relatively well-functioning structure of the camp’s health-care facilities. In terms of quantity, the system kept improving but remained imbalanced qualitatively. In spite of official assurances of the sufficient stock of drugs, in actual fact, medicaments had been smuggled into the Ghetto throughout its existence. For instance, sulfonamides, forerunners of today’s antibiotics in the treatment of bacterial infections, were highly demanded in the camp. Dozens of pharmacists from the Protectorate, as well as pharmacists from Germany and Austria (frequently elderly people), worked in the Ghetto. Most of the Protectorate pharmacists had been later deported to the extermination and concentration camps in the East where they perished, with very few exceptions. However, some of them lived to see their liberation in the Terezín Ghetto. The Archive of the Jewish Museum in Prague keeps orders of medicaments and other medical documents, especially from the years 1944–1945, which have been analyzed here in terms of the history of pharmacy.
