Explanation:

Upton Sinclair aimed to expose the harsh working - conditions and exploitation in the meat - packing industry to arouse public concern. His book "The Jungle" was intended to make people sick not in a literal sense of causing illness, but to shock them with the unsanitary and inhumane conditions. People focused more on food safety rather than worker rights as Sinclair had hoped.

Answer:

B) People focused on food safety instead of worker rights
