Vaccines Overview

Vaccines specifically formulated substances that improve human immunity to a variety of diseases.  Each vaccine is tailored to a specific disease, usually utilizing a dead or dormant form of that disease to train the body's immune system to fight it.  Currently, the primary market segmentations are for live attenuated vaccines, inactivated vaccines, and subunit/recombinant vaccines. 

Vaccines Market Global Outlook

On the whole, the vaccine market shows a growth rate of approximately 6.67% and is forecasted to remain there until the mid-2020s.   Of the various market segments, live attenuated vaccines (which use live, but harmless, disease matter) is by far the most dominant, accounting for the majority of vaccines in use.  The growth in this segment is projected to have a CAGR of 5.44% in the near future.

Of vaccines currently on the market, one strong growth area is in vaccines for the Human Papilloma Virus.  HPV is a mild sexually transmitted disease which is also linked to cervical cancer, and its vaccine being increasingly mandated by world governments.

As such, growth in the vaccine market is seen as largely government-driven.  States implement initiatives mandating vaccination, causing immediate boosts to the industry.  This fuels research into new vaccines, which are then introduced to the market.

Major Challenges to The Global Vaccine Market

Expansion into developing nations has been a continual challenge.  Many governments are at times disinterested in public health initiatives, or else lack the resources to implement widespread vaccination.  There is also a substantial lack of education among the public and some lingering distrust of vaccines themselves. These issues create uncertainty in the ability of the market to grow globally.

In addition, the production of new vaccines is extremely expensive, with long and arduous regulations that must be cleared, slowing the introduction of new products.
