Global Animal Parasiticides Market - Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic
The World Health Organization (WHO) designated the illness caused by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which first appeared in Wuhan (province of Hubei, China), in the last months of 2019, as "coronavirus disease 2019" or COVID-19. This virus spreads quickly, and had a serious negative impact on the economies, social behaviors, and healthcare of every country in the world.
COVID-19 affected the economy in three main ways: by directly affecting production and demand, by creating disruptions in distribution channels, and through its financial impact on firms and financial markets. Due to the lockdown, several countries, such as India, China, Brazil, and others, faced problems regarding the transportation of raw materials and manufacturing supplies from one place to another.
Moreover, COVID-19 had a negative impact on the global animal parasiticides market, due to delays in animal diagnosis and treatment. For instance, according to World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH), in October 2020, the crisis caused by this pandemic does not only affect people, but also animals are indirect victims of the pandemic too. COVID-19 has had, and will continue its effect for some time into the future, an impact on the health and welfare of almost all animals, including companion animals, livestock, laboratory animals and wildlife due to delayed vaccination, parasitic prevention, and others.
