The Vaccines Market is valued at $187 billion in 2021, with COVID-19 vaccines contributing $137 billion.
Vaccines represent one of the greatest achievements of science and medicine in the fight against infectious diseases. Vaccination is one of the most cost-effective public health tools to prevent infectious diseases. Significant progress has been made in expanding the coverage of vaccines globally, resulting in the prevention of more than two million deaths annually.
The growth in this market is majorly driven by the high prevalence of diseases, increasing government initiatives towards immunization, technological advancements in the vaccine industry, a strong pipeline for vaccines, and the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, increasing epidemic potential, growing focus on therapeutic vaccines, and emerging markets are expected to offer significant growth opportunities for players operating in the vaccines market. However, product recalls and inadequate access to vaccines are the key factors expected to hinder the growth of the vaccines market.
