COVID-19 Impact on Alzheimer’s Drugs Market
The COVID-19 pandemic has deleteriously affected all the countries and industries. Similarly, the Alzheimer’s drug market is anticipated to take a hit. The target industry is now facing challenges to manage the interrupted demand and supply of components. Also, unpredictable and disturbing supply chain activities and the unavailability of human resources are anticipated to impact the target industry growth. In contrast, the rising research & development activities for developing novel treatments against COVID-19 is creating a lucrative opportunity for the companies. Hence, the overall COVID-19 impact is expected to continue to moderate for the global key players operating in the industry.

Market Drivers

Growing Incidence of Alzheimer’s Disease
The growing occurrence and prevalence of Alzheimer’s disease globally are anticipated to propel the growth of Alzheimer’s drug market. Growing age and the elderly population are at a high risk to develop Alzheimer's disease, which raises the disease occurrence and offers growth opportunities for Alzheimer’s drug market. According to World Population Prospects (WPP) published in 2017 by the United Nations, around 962 million people over age 60, which is estimated for 13% of the worldwide population is anticipated to reach approximately 1.4 billion by 2030, rising at an annual rate of 3%.

Currently, Europe has the highest old population accounting for 25% of the population, the Asia Pacific had an elderly people of 547 million people and it is likely to reach around 900 million by 2025, therefore these regions have potential opportunities for the target market.
