Original Note:
The number 8,000 refers to villagers, not Jews specifically. Most Jews were already deported by the time of the "outbreak." Eugene is not recognized as “Righteous Among the Nations” due to a lack of evidence. However, his parents, Zofia and Kazimierz Lazowski, are. https://www.timesofisrael.com/how-a-faked-typhus-outbreak-spared-8000-poles-from-the-nazis/ https://k-larevue.com/en/investigation-on-a-fake-polish-just/
