Uh, what? I absolutely was taught about the 1920s pandemic. Not so much about the disease itself or how the pandemic was handled, admittedly, but certainly about how it affected society and the politics of the time. It wasn't a whole unit by itself, but it was definitely more than a footnote.
I guess I was taught it. There was a paragraph in our history text about it. The teacher said a sentence or two on it.
