The correct answer is Larger quantities of penicillin were made.

After WWI the US noticed that the main cause of death of soldiers was the infection. Because of that during WWII the US government focused on producing larger quantities of penicillin. The US government encouraged companies to produce penicillin and solve that high mortality problem.
