metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: The article covers the problems of relations between the Leningrad City Health Department and the
  Military Sanitary Department of the Leningrad Front in 1941–1942. The medical institutions of the Front Evacuation
  Point were located within city limits due to the unfavorable combat situation. This led to conflicts between military
  and civilian medical agencies, both at the stage of medical support of military mobilization and deployment of
  a network of evacuation hospitals in the first months of the war and later. The lack of clarity on subordination,
  rights, and obligations had a negative impact on the deployment and ongoing activities of evacuation hospitals,
  the conduct of anti-epidemic measures, and personnel policies. This could undermine the combat capacity of
  the troops and, ultimately, threatened Leningrad. However, attempts to redistribute powers between civilian and
  military medical institutions were not motivated by personal self-interest of their leaders, but by the interests of
  the service personnel. Most likely, personal responsibility for implementing instructions of parent bodies forced
  them to concentrate all control in their hands to use resources promptly to avoid lengthy inter-agency coordination.
  Despite difficult relations and differences, the health care system of blockaded Leningrad was able to solve
  its main task: to ensure the sanitary and epidemiological well-being of troops and the population and to restore
  combat losses of the army units defending the city.
