Instead, we spend a lot of time in high school biology on hydras … maybe that time would have been better spent on some history of plagues
I think there’s a different class that might be better suited to discussing past plagues lol
On a serious note, I get what you mean. I think classes need to be more integrated on their lessons, so like the science class is discussing the mechanics of how diseases reproduce at the same time history class is covering past epidemics, while the social studies class covers how systemic injustice worsened epidemics for the poor and minorities.
