In 1918, the US and Canada were devastated by an epidemic of the flu. However, this was a particularly dangerous form of the flu that killed large portions of the population. At the time, this was far more important than Woodrow Wilson's Crusade to Spread "Democracy" that led to the rise of Hitler and Stalin (also known as WWI and the "Great" War).
However, it is forgotten shortly afterward and is not ever brought up
Could this be because people back in the early 1920s were in denial and simply decided to forget the awful Flu epidemic?
