    Antiviral drugs have gained significant attention in recent years due to the outbreak of various viral diseases. Tanzania, being one of the developing countries in Africa, has witnessed a surge in demand for antiviral drugs.

    Customer preferences:
    The customer preferences in Tanzania are primarily driven by the increasing number of viral diseases.

The government has taken several initiatives to address these challenges, such as increasing the healthcare budget and improving healthcare infrastructure.

    Underlying macroeconomic factors:
    Tanzania is one of the fastest-growing economies in Africa, with a GDP growth rate of around 6% in recent years. The country has witnessed significant economic growth, which has resulted in an increase in disposable income and improved living standards.
