The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the entire supply chain of the healthcare industry mainly due to strict lockdown in several regions. The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the economy of various regions across the globe in three main ways; 1) by directly affecting the production and demand; 2) by creating disruptions in distribution channels; and 3) through its financial impact on companies and financial markets. Many countries such as Thailand, Indonesia, and Singapore are facing problems with regards to transportation and distribution of healthcare products.

However, there was no strong impact of COVID-19 on sevoflurane market as several inhalation anesthetic agents were used to sedate severely ill COVID-19 patients who required endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation. For instance, according to an article published in Lancet, April 2020, in both low- and high-income countries, the use of inhalational anesthetic medicines such as sevoflurane and isoflurane for ventilated COVID-19 patients is both practicable and cost-effective. These medications allow for precise and rapid management of sedation levels, and drug administration does not necessitate the use of electronic infusion pumps, which are in short supply.
