Dublin, Sept. 17, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Vaccines 2018: World Market Analysis, Key Players, Trends, Pediatric and Adult Segments (Influenza, Cervical Cancer, Combinations, Hepatitis, Pneumococcal, MMR, Varicella, Poliovirus, HIB, Others)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global market for human vaccines is experiencing strong growth, fuelled by favorable demographics (population growth, rising life expectancy), continued new product introductions, indication expansions for some products and rising usage, particularly in India and China. Vaccines 2018: World Market Analysis, Key Players, Trends, Pediatric and Adult Segments examines the market for vaccines used in humans to prevent various types of disease, providing a comprehensive market summary.

Issues and Trends in the Market

Vaccination has played an enormous role in the prevention of disease, having had the greatest impact on human health of any medical intervention to date. As a result, vaccine-preventable diseases and their resulting deaths are now relatively rare in the developed world. However, the developing nations have not benefited as much from the introduction of vaccines. Additionally, other issues are impacting the vaccines industry both positively and negatively. Vaccines 2018 discusses some of the most important macro and micro trends, including:

• Rising life expectancy;
• increasing obesity;
• growing out of pocket spending on healthcare;
• health insurance changes in the U.S.;
• decentralization of healthcare services;
• austerity programs in Europe;
• global healthcare mergers and acquisitions;
• vaccine safety challenges and negative public opinion;
• vaccine shortages;
• refusal to vaccinate.

Competitive Landscape

The report also discusses the vaccine businesses of industry leaders as well as emerging players with high potential. Many of the larger companies - some active in other areas in addition to vaccines - are discussed, with a focus on their preventative vaccine businesses and products. (Specifically excluded is discussion of related infectious disease products such as therapeutic vaccines and monoclonal antibodies.)
