a. more u.s. soldiers died of influenza than in fighting.
b. businesses needed to shut down to prevent the spread of diseases.
c. the pandemic caused a shortage of doctors.

Explanation:

Option A is a U.S.-specific effect, not global. Options B and C are localized or secondary impacts, not the primary global effect. The 1918-1920 influenza pandemic's defining global impact is the massive worldwide death toll, with estimates starting at ~25 million (and some going higher).

Answer:

D. Approximately 25 million people died worldwide.
