Global Breast Pumps 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. The virus spread 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 with regard to the transportation of things from one place to another.
The COVID-19 pandemic is expected to drive the growth of the global breast pumps market over the forecast period. There has been a decrease in the rate of breastfeeding globally due to the fear of the spread of COVID-19 through breast milk. According to the International Breastfeeding Journal, in August 2020, there has a decrease in the rate of breastfeeding during the COVID-19 pandemic as mothers and infants were separated due to COVID-19-positive cases.
Moreover, according to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) in August 2020 and the World Health Organization in June 2020, no cases were reported regarding the transmission of coronavirus from breast milk to infants, and more research is required to understand the risk of transmission involved.
