    Analyst Opinion

    Australia, like many other countries, has been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The country's response to the pandemic has been praised globally, and as a result, the COVID-19 Vaccines market in Australia has been developing in a certain way.

    Customer preferences:
    Australian customers have been showing a growing preference for vaccines that have been approved by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), which is the regulatory body for therapeutic goods in Australia. This preference for TGA-approved vaccines has been driven by the country's successful response to the pandemic, which has led to a high level of trust in the TGA's approval process.

    Trends in the market:
    The COVID-19 Vaccines market in Australia has been dominated by the Pfizer and AstraZeneca vaccines, which have been approved by the TGA. The Pfizer vaccine has been preferred by younger Australians, while the AstraZeneca vaccine has been preferred by older Australians. This preference has been driven by the different efficacy rates of the two vaccines and the different age groups that have been eligible for each vaccine.

    Local special circumstances:
    Australia's successful response to the pandemic has been driven by the country's strict border controls, quarantine measures, and contact tracing capabilities. These measures have allowed Australia to keep its COVID-19 case numbers low, which has led to a high level of confidence in the government's response to the pandemic. This confidence has translated into a high level of trust in the TGA's approval process for COVID-19 vaccines.

    Underlying macroeconomic factors:
    Australia's strong economy has allowed the country to invest heavily in its COVID-19 response, including the development and distribution of vaccines. The government has also provided financial incentives to encourage Australians to get vaccinated, which has helped to drive demand for COVID-19 vaccines. Additionally, Australia's high level of trust in its regulatory bodies has helped to build confidence in the COVID-19 vaccines that have been approved by the TGA.

    Coronavirus (COVID-19): vaccines and vaccination campaign

    As of March 2023, more than 13 billion COVID-19 vaccine doses had been administered worldwide. Wide-spread vaccine availability, increasing herd immunity, and lower case numbers led to renewed hope and a feeling of normality in 2023. However, especially during the winter seasons and with the potential emergence of new variants of the virus (like Omicron in 2021-2022), tracking of coronavirus cases repeatedly becomes a focus for the public. Thus, there is a level of uncertainty about what developments the winter season 2023/2024 might bring.
