COVID-19 Impact on Influenza Vaccines Market
The COVID-19 pandemic has now affected more than 200 countries worldwide. Manufacturers have been pressured to increase production capacity and increase the supply of products and other commodities. UNICEF, WHO, PAHO, and other regular immunization programs have been halted by the pandemic. By making the population more susceptible to deadly antigens, the suspension and decrease in immunization campaigns caused a significant amount of damage to medical systems. The outcome is that there is a higher mortality rate. This would have far worse implications than the pandemic itself. GAVI reports that the cease-fire will mean that it will not immunize around 13.5 million people from the least developed countries.
