Global Breathanalyzers 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 spread quickly and had a serious negative impact on the economies, social behaviors, and healthcare of every country in the world.

Due to the lockdown, several countries such as India, China, Brazil, and others faced problems with regard to the transportation of drugs from one place to another.
COVID-19 had a positive impact on the global Breathanalyzers market. For instance, in April 2022, the U.S. FDA approved the first COVID-19 breathalyzer test developed by InspectIR Systems, LLC is Research, Development & Device Company Dedicated to Community Wellness and Health. The test provides results within three minutes and detects five volatile organic compounds (VOCs) associated with COVID-19. The COVID-19 pandemic notably impacted the market. The pandemic also increased the demand for non-invasive testing solutions that could be performed while adhering to social distancing norms. Breathalyzers thus emerged as viable alternatives in detecting COVID-19 and other medical diseases without the risk of transmission.
