    Analyst Opinion

    The Egyptian healthcare market has been growing at a steady pace in recent years, with the vaccines market being a significant contributor to this growth.

    Customer preferences:
    Egypt has a large population with a significant proportion of young people, making vaccines a crucial aspect of public health. The Egyptian government has been actively promoting vaccination programs to prevent the spread of infectious diseases, especially among children. The majority of vaccines in Egypt are administered through public healthcare facilities, with a smaller proportion being distributed through private clinics and hospitals.

    Trends in the market:
    The vaccines market in Egypt has seen significant growth in recent years, driven by a combination of factors such as an increase in the incidence of infectious diseases, government initiatives to promote vaccination programs, and a rise in the disposable income of the population. The market is dominated by multinational pharmaceutical companies, who have been investing heavily in research and development to cater to the growing demand for vaccines. There has also been a trend towards the adoption of new technologies in vaccine production, such as the use of recombinant DNA technology.

    Local special circumstances:
    Egypt has a large population with a high incidence of infectious diseases such as hepatitis, typhoid, and meningitis. The government has been actively promoting vaccination programs to prevent the spread of these diseases, especially among children. However, there have been challenges in the implementation of these programs, such as a lack of awareness among the population, inadequate healthcare infrastructure, and limited funding.

    Underlying macroeconomic factors:
    The Egyptian economy has been growing steadily in recent years, with a focus on sectors such as tourism, manufacturing, and agriculture. The healthcare sector has also been a significant contributor to the economy, with the government investing heavily in healthcare infrastructure and services. The rise in disposable income of the population has also contributed to the growth of the vaccines market, with more people able to afford healthcare services. However, the political and economic instability in the region has posed challenges to the growth of the market, with factors such as inflation, currency devaluation, and a shortage of foreign exchange affecting the availability and affordability of vaccines.

    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.
