Bogus interpretation of source material[edit]

This article is a complete misrepresentation of its source material. If you read the cited source material you will find that:

1. All the Jews in the region had long been rounded up before the doctor created his false epidemic - there were no more Jews in the area! The doctor himself stated that he was not aware of saving any Jews.

2. 8,000 is the entire population of the area. Not its Jews which were rounded up earlier in any case.

Specifically, from the Chicago Sun-Times article, which is the source of the other references of describing his actions during the war we have this: " Lazowski’s fake epidemic came too late for the Jews of Rozwadow, the town where he practiced. The Jews there were rounded up and deported to labor and death camps before the quarantine. But Lazowski’s sleight of hand undoubtedly saved many other Jews–although it is impossible to say how many–who were hiding in the countryside or living in the other quarantined towns."

Please help by adding on to this page using information from the cited sources and uploading images of the doctor. Thank you Waterooster 01:05, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Also, it would help to find a way to tag Dr. Lazowski as a "rescuer" of WWII Waterooster 01:05, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Some information is avaliable on Wikipedia, see Proteus OX19Waterooster 14:26, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • It would help to upload an image of Eugene Lazowski. I found one on the website [1]. I don't know how to upload the picture. Please help. Ississippissim 14:32, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]



Not to be a buzzkill, but it seems to me Lazowski didn't actually prevent 8000 people from dying, but rather from being sent to work camps. I realize the extent to which these fates often coincided, but for accuracy's sake I have edited the article. Note that I detest Hitler as much as anyone, but this is an article in an encyclopedia, not a film script attempting to woo the academy (although apparently that's in the works).

please edit :-)[edit]

Cheers! It would be good to add a link to the Proteus bacterium page. Something like 'the Proteus X bacterium'

Also, here is story as told by Lazowski himself. He does not mention saving specifically any Jews https://books.google.nl/books?id=nhfX4s5lreAC&lpg=RA3-PA26&ots=KM8PjKpRQk&dq=proteus%20typhus&pg=RA3-PA27#v=onepage&q=proteus%20typhus&f=false - although the article closes with a reference to people who would have been killed 'simply because they are Jews or Poles'.

grammar[edit]

"In popular culture In 2001, Ryan Bank began work on documentary about Lazowski entitled A Private War, filming Lazowski's visit to Poland and recorded testimonies of people whose families were saved by the fake epidemic. There is no evidence that the film was ever completed or released."

I'm not a native speaker (writer ;-) ) of English myself, but I'd say there's an "a" missing before the word "documentary" and it should perhaps be "recording" instead of "recorded" - or maybe a comma before the "and (recorded)". 94.134.203.232 (talk) 07:40, 20 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
