Eastern Siberia during the Great Patriotic War, being in the deep rear, was one of the key regions where the population and industrial enterprises were evacuated from the front-line zones and west territories of the USSR. Among the arriving population, there were many highly qualified specialists who were sent along with enterprises to resume their work, which, on the one hand, gave preconditions for the development of the region, including as a major industrial and scientific center in the future, but also created an additional burden on the civil health care system of the region "in the moment." Eastern Siberia provided the USSR with healthy human and necessary production resources, making it possible for the Soviet Army to defend the Motherland, which was the main thing in those difficult years, in the face of the sudden invasion of Nazi Germany. The archival materials that give an idea of the state of the civil health care system in the region by the beginning and in the first days of the Great Patriotic War are analyzed, and a comparative analysis of the indicators of both the Eastern Siberia region and its individual republics with the RSFSR as a whole is carried out. This study was carried out as part of the research work "State policy in the field of health protection and medical science in the Russian Empire and the USSR."
