The demand for vaccines in Portugal has been steadily increasing in recent years due to various factors.
Customer preferences: Customers in Portugal are increasingly aware of the importance of vaccination and the role it plays in preventing diseases. The COVID-19 pandemic has further highlighted the importance of vaccines, leading to an increase in demand for not only COVID-19 vaccines but also for other vaccines such as influenza, pneumonia, and meningitis.
Trends in the market: The Portuguese government has been actively promoting vaccination through various initiatives, including free vaccination programs for certain age groups. This has led to an increase in vaccination rates, particularly among children and the elderly. Additionally, there has been a growing trend towards combination vaccines, which offer protection against multiple diseases in a single shot. This has led to a shift towards more efficient and convenient vaccination practices.
Local special circumstances: Portugal has a rapidly aging population, which has led to an increased demand for vaccines that protect against diseases common among the elderly, such as pneumonia and shingles. Additionally, the country has a high incidence of certain diseases such as tuberculosis, which has led to a higher demand for vaccines that protect against these diseases.
Underlying macroeconomic factors: The Portuguese healthcare system has undergone significant reforms in recent years, leading to increased access to healthcare services, including vaccines. Additionally, the country has a relatively high GDP per capita compared to other countries in the region, which has led to increased affordability of vaccines. However, the country still faces challenges such as a high public debt-to-GDP ratio, which could potentially impact healthcare spending in the future.
