      Question! I taught/researched about pandemics for a long time—see my 2014 piece below. I was always struck by how my students didn't know about the 1918 flu pandemic. What are people's theories about this memory hole? Why so little cultural memory/impact? https://medium.com/message/ebola-the-real-reason-everyone-should-panic-889f32740e3e …pic.twitter.com/Jnq3ZGLGQt

      I have my theories, too, but I am also wondering if there is a systematic study and/or long-form pieces I don't know about how the 1918 pandemic got so little traction in literature, film, memoirs, etc? I got used to spending a good chunk of time convincing students it was real.

      I feel like it at least has some place in the collective memory. I’m more fascinated that 1957 and 1968 are completely gone, especially given how recent they are

          What happened then? I'm assuming polio but 1968?

          Both flu pandemics. Million+ deaths worldwide and 100k+ in the us

          I heard about the 1918 pandemic probably first from books I read as a kid, so maybe in France at least it's not forgotten. But I've never heard about 57, and 68 is remembered in France for completely different reasons - even at the time, the media didn't cover that flu.

          Yeah, ‘68 was a pretty news-filled year
