Global Dermatology Devices Market– Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic

Since the COVID-19 virus outbreak in December 2019, the disease has spread to over 100 countries across the globe and the World Health Organization had declared it a public health emergency on January 30, 2020.

COVID-19 has affected the economy in three main ways: by directly affecting production and demand of drugs and vaccines, by creating disruptions in distribution channels, and through its financial impact on firms and financial markets. Due to nationwide lockdowns, several countries, such as China, India, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, and others, faced problems with regard to the transportation of drugs and vaccines from one place to another.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a negative impact on the expansion of the dermatology devices market. Due to the increase in COVID-19 cases, international supply chains for dermatology equipment were affected by global government measures like shutdown and strict rules. Dermatologists and surgeons use dermatological equipment to identify and treat skin conditions. In order to avoid disease transmission among patients, the dermatology division's closure and the cancellation of dermatological treatments during the pandemic had an influence on market for dermatology devices.
