Global Bowen Disease Treatment Market – Impact of Coronavirus (Covid-19) Pandemic

Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak was first reported on December 31, 2019, in Wuhan, China. The World Health Organization declared COVID-19, as pandemic on March 11, 2020. According to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Weekly Epidemiological Update by the World Health Organization, over 252,826,597 cases and 5,092,761 deaths due to coronavirus (COVID-19) were reported till November 14, 2021, across the globe.

The COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown in various countries across the globe has negatively impacted the financial status of businesses across all sectors. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the entire supply chain of the healthcare industry mainly due to strict lockdown in several regions. Likewise, COVID-19 pandemic is expected to have a negative impact on the global Bowen disease treatment market over the forecast period, owing to disruption in cancer treatment services and halt of clinical trials related to treatment of cancer (including Bowen disease). For instance, according to a report published by the World Health Organization in July 2020, around 42% of the countries across the world have disrupted services for cancer treatment in lieu of COVID-19 pandemic.
