Global Light Therapy 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.
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.
COVID-19 had a positive impact on the global light therapy market. For instance, according to The Open Dermatology Journal, in August 2020, some of the COVID-19 patients reported aggravation of their skin disorders such as rosacea, eczema, atopic dermatitis, and neurodermatitis due to the prolonged use of masks during the COVID-19 epidemic. Moreover, the use of skin disinfectants such as sanitizers is also responsible for increasing the incidence of contact dermatitis not only in COVID-19 positive patients but also in healthy individuals. Moreover, according to the same source, increasing skin disorders among COVID-19 patients may increase the risk of developing neurological disorders such as depression, anxiety, and others. Therefore, increasing cases of skin disorders and neurological disorders are expected to support growth of the market over the forecast period.
