| Zusammenfassung: | This article examines the intersection of race and gender in the public health policies of German-occupied Warsaw (1939–40). Using previously overlooked archival records, it argues that the Polish municipal administration played a crucial role in enforcing German-imposed health measures that disproportionately victimized Jewish women. Through case studies on gynaecological care, the monitoring of sexually transmitted diseases, and the anti-typhus campaign, the study reveals how these policies specifically targeted Jewish women’s bodies and reproductive roles, scapegoating them as disease carriers and paving the way for their segregation and indirect extermination prior to the establishment of a closed ghetto.
