Inactivated Vaccine Market – Dynamics

Introduction of new inactivated vaccines after completion of clinical studies are expected to boost growth of the inactivated vaccines market over the forecast period. For instance, in 2017, Merck’s investigational inactivated varicella zoster virus vaccine (V212) showed a decrease in the incidence of herpes zoster case by an estimated 64% in immunocompromised subjects in the first phase 3 trial. Clinical studies also revealed that V212 lessens the incidence of herpes zoster pain by around 69.5%. Moreover, V212 demonstrated 83.7% reduction in the incidence of post herpetic neuralgia. Rising prevalence of various viral and bacterial diseases around the globe have increased the demand for inactivated vaccines, which in turn will fuel the market growth. For instance, according to the World Health Organization (WHO) report in 2018, annual epidemics due to influenza were estimated to result in around 3 to 5 million cases of severe illness and around 290,000 to 650,000 deaths. Moreover, WHO 2018 report also showed that around 21 million cases and 222,000 typhoid-related deaths occur annually worldwide.
