    Analyst Opinion

    The COVID-19 vaccines market in the United States has been rapidly developing since the first vaccine was authorized for emergency use in December 2020.

    Customer preferences:
    The majority of Americans have shown a willingness to get vaccinated against COVID-19, with over 50% of the population receiving at least one dose as of June 2021. This high demand for vaccines has resulted in a surge in production and distribution in the United States.

    Trends in the market:
    One of the most significant trends in the COVID-19 vaccines market in the United States is the shift towards vaccinating younger age groups. Initially, vaccines were primarily distributed to high-risk populations and older individuals. However, with the increasing availability of vaccines, states have begun to expand eligibility to younger age groups. Another trend is the emergence of booster shots, with pharmaceutical companies already developing and testing booster shots to increase immunity against COVID-19 variants.

    Local special circumstances:
    The United States has a complex healthcare system, with a mix of public and private insurance providers. This has resulted in disparities in vaccine distribution, with some states and communities experiencing higher vaccination rates than others. Additionally, vaccine hesitancy and misinformation have been prevalent in certain areas, leading to lower vaccination rates.

    Underlying macroeconomic factors:
    The United States government has played a significant role in the development and distribution of COVID-19 vaccines. The government has provided funding to pharmaceutical companies for vaccine development and has implemented initiatives to increase vaccine production and distribution. Additionally, the government has provided financial incentives to individuals to get vaccinated, such as free transportation and gift cards. The strong government support and investment in the COVID-19 vaccines market have contributed to its rapid development in the United States.

    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.
