The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the global economy, including the pharmaceutical industry. The race to develop a vaccine for COVID-19 has been intense, and North America has been at the forefront of this effort.
Customer preferences: The demand for COVID-19 vaccines in North America has been high due to the severity of the pandemic in the region. Customers are looking for vaccines that are safe, effective, and easily accessible. There is also a preference for vaccines that require only one dose, as this simplifies the vaccination process.
Trends in the market: The COVID-19 vaccine market in North America has been dominated by Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna. These two companies were the first to develop and receive emergency use authorization for their vaccines in the region. However, other companies such as Johnson & Johnson and AstraZeneca have also entered the market. The availability of multiple vaccines has increased the supply of vaccines in the region, which has helped to address the high demand.
Local special circumstances: The United States has been the largest market for COVID-19 vaccines in North America. The country has a large population and has been one of the worst affected by the pandemic. The government has played a significant role in the distribution of vaccines, with the Biden administration setting a goal of vaccinating 70% of the adult population by July 4th, 2021. Canada has also been actively vaccinating its population, with a goal of vaccinating all eligible individuals by September 2021.
Underlying macroeconomic factors: The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the global economy, including the pharmaceutical industry. Governments around the world have invested heavily in the development and distribution of vaccines, which has created opportunities for pharmaceutical companies. In North America, the government has played a significant role in the distribution of vaccines, which has helped to address the high demand. The availability of vaccines has also had a positive impact on the economy, as it has allowed for the reopening of businesses and the resumption of economic activity.
