Varicella Treatment Market Scope and Segmentation

Market Definition

Varicella, also known as chickenpox, is an acute and highly contagious disease caused by the primary infection of varicella-zoster virus (VZV). It is highly transmissible through respiratory droplets or may infect another person through direct contact. The initial symptoms of clinical varicella generally appear after a 10-21-day incubation period, including fever, malaise, and the characteristic itchy rash.  

Global Varicella Treatment Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Growing Awareness About Vaccines

Varicella vaccines are primarily used for measles, chickenpox, herpes zoster and mumps, rubella, and varicella immunization. Chickenpox can be serious, particularly in babies, adults, pregnant women, adolescents, and people with low immunity systems. Thus immunization in newborns is recommended by the WHO. Growing awareness associated with the use of varicella vaccines, growing immunization programs, and the rise in adoption of varicella vaccination worldwide also boost the growth of the varicella treatment market.

• Immunization Towards Chickenpox

Varicella vaccines are more efficient in building immunity against the varicella-zoster virus as the infection can cause severe diseases such as chickenpox and herpes zoster. Immunization against these diseases is essential as chickenpox can lead to severe complications such as bacterial infections of the skin and soft tissues in children and is also seen in adults in tropical countries like India. Growing demand for vaccination in many countries is anticipated to boost the demand for the varicella market in the upcoming years.

Opportunities

• Rising Rate of Campaigns and Initiatives

There are numerous campaigns that are being conducted in the U.S. to immunize people against the varicella vaccine to prevent diseases. For Instance, in October 2021, Measles, mumps, rubella (MMR), and varicella (chickenpox) vaccinations for Afghan evacuate who are temporarily staying at eight military installations in the U.S. were administered nationwide as part of Operation Allies Welcome (OAW). This effort led to the vaccination of more than 49,000 Afghan refugees nationwide. Furthermore, vaccinations are being given to evacuates at staging locations in Europe and the Middle East.

• Increasing Demand for Retail Pharmacies

The rise in the number of varicella therapeutics delivered through retail pharmacies and more retail pharmacies in highly developed countries creates opportunities for market expansion. Additionally, patients choose retail pharmacies over other types for purchasing drugs, as these are easily available.

 Restraints/Challenges

• Lack of skilled professionals

The lack of appropriate healthcare professionals who are unable to treat the patients with suitable treatments could limit the growth of the global varicella treatment market over a forecast period.

• Unavailability of Vaccinations

There is wide unavailability of vaccines that is hampering the market growth. Vaccination for varicella is not available in these regions. It was recorded that Thailand, Timor Lester, Macedonia, Tajikistan, and Syria accounted for the biggest number of varicella infection cases as of 2013, but there was a lack of vaccines and medicines that hampered the market growth.

COVID-19 Impact on Global Varicella Treatment Market

The SARS-CoV-2 that causes coronavirus disease has been associated with T-cell immunological dysfunction. Patients suffering from COVID-19 are more likely to experience reactivation of herpes zoster due to the functional impairment and decline in T lymphocytes, predominantly CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, and natural killer cells. Furthermore, the study titled "Herpes zoster in the era of COVID-19: A prospective observational study to probe the association of herpes zoster with COVID 19 infection and vaccination" published in the National Library of Medicine in June 2022, it has been reported that during post-marketing surveillance, reactivation of the varicella-zoster virus has occasionally been reported post vaccination for SARS-CoV-2. Thus, during the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak, managing varicella infection has become more critical.

Recent Developments:

• In January 2022, Pfizer Inc. collaborated with BioNTech S.E. to develop a potential first mRNA-based vaccine for the prevention of shingles, a debilitating, disfiguring, and painful disease which impacts about one in three people in the U.S. during their lifetime.
• In July 2021, GlaxoSmithKline plc reported that the U.S. FDA had approved Shingrix to prevent herpes zoster in adults aged 18 years and above who are at higher risk of developing the disorder because of immunodeficiency
