    Analyst Opinion

    Italy, one of the countries most affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, has been actively involved in the development and distribution of vaccines to combat the virus.

    Customer preferences:
    Italian customers have shown a high level of willingness to get vaccinated against COVID-19, with a large percentage of the population expressing interest in receiving the vaccine. This has led to a high demand for vaccines in the country, with both government and private entities working to secure doses for their citizens and employees.

    Trends in the market:
    The COVID-19 vaccine market in Italy has seen a significant increase in the number of available vaccines, with several options now approved for use in the country. The government has also implemented a comprehensive vaccination program, prioritizing high-risk groups and healthcare workers. This has led to a steady increase in the number of vaccinated individuals in the country, which is expected to continue in the coming months.

    Local special circumstances:
    One of the unique challenges facing the COVID-19 vaccine market in Italy is the country's aging population. With a large percentage of the population over the age of 65, there is a greater need for vaccines that are safe and effective for older individuals. Additionally, Italy has a strong tradition of vaccine hesitancy, which has been a concern for public health officials during the pandemic.

    Underlying macroeconomic factors:
    Italy's economy has been hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic, with the country experiencing a significant decline in GDP in 2020. However, the government has implemented several measures to support businesses and individuals affected by the pandemic, which has helped to stabilize the economy to some extent. The success of the vaccination program in Italy is seen as a key factor in the country's economic recovery, with businesses and consumers eager to return to normal activities once the virus is under control.

    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.
