Preventive vaccines plays a vital role in safeguarding public health by protecting individuals from infectious diseases and reducing disease transmission in communities. Preventive vaccines provide active acquired immunity against specific infectious diseases such as measles, pertussis, pneumococcal disease, and varicella zoster virus infection to name a few. Preventive vaccines target infectious agents like bacteria and viruses and work by exposing individuals’ immune systems to weakened or dead forms of germs that cause disease such as smallpox or flu. This exposure triggers the immune system to produce antibodies and develop an immunity to the disease. The global Preventive Vaccines Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 51057.26 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 9.4% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market key trends:
One of the key trends in the preventive vaccines market is the increasing adoption of combination vaccines. Combination vaccines are designed to protect against more than one type of bacteria or virus. They help to reduce the number of shots and doctor visits required for vaccination. For instance, in the U.S. Pediatric Combination Vaccines market, combination vaccines account for more than 50% of total pediatric vaccine sales. This is because combination vaccines provide convenience to both patients and healthcare providers through lesser number of injections. Pharmaceutical companies are also focusing on development and commercialization of new combination vaccines which would further drive the market growth during the forecast period.
