Yeah, I suspect the point of the homework is for the teacher to shoot them all down.
There might be some plague survivors whose genes became more prevalent in some country. But with the dramatic increase in the interconnectiveness of the world, any evolutionary pressure is hugely diluted, into areas without that pressure.

You could look at those disorders for which genetic counseling is offered and see if any rates have been reduced over time for those disorders because couples are not reproducing if they have high risk. There's also the question of screening for disorders and terminating pregnancies. I imaging any changes would only be visible in first world countries.
