Research and development on vaccines has grown exponentially in recent years, reflecting the ethical and medical needs to combat fatal infectious outbreaks. Increased funding from public and private agencies and organizations is helping to accelerate R&D efforts in this arena of medical science. The Ebola outbreak in 2015 and the race to develop a new vaccine to fight the Zika virus demonstrate the importance of vaccines in promoting public health. Accordingly, both small biotechnology companies and leading pharmaceutical firms have expanded vaccine research and production in the past decade, as returns on investment have become more attractive.
"The vaccine market, initially considered as a low-profit business, is now one of the brighter spots for pharmaceutical companies in terms of revenue streams,” says BCC Research analyst Shalini S. Dewan. "Increasing public awareness about preventive healthcare and increased spending by governments on disease prevention has encouraged manufacturers about vaccines. For example, increased public awareness about viral diseases such as hepatitis, MMR and polio has augmented the vaccination rates in many countries."
