South America Virology Market

Market Introduction

South and America (SAM) region consists of Brazil, Argentina, and the rest of South America. The growth of the virology market can be attributed to increasing research and development investment by private and public organizations. Also, increasing incidence of HIV, hepatitis, and viral infections is driving the adoption of various therapeutics in coming years.  Brazil has made huge strides in the healthcare sector owing to increasing healthcare expenditure. As per the International Trade Administration (ITA), Brazil is the largest healthcare market in Latin America and spends 9.1% of its GDP on healthcare. Brazil is currently facing one of the biggest public health crises. In addition, the previous epidemics caused by the Zika virus (ZIKV) coexist in Brazil has increased the burden on the health sector. The outbreak of Zika infection began in Brazil in 2015. In 2019, a total of 10,768 cases of Zika infection were identified in Brazil, and in 2020 the health system was severely hit by the COVID-19 in the country. The recent virus outbreaks are paving the way for more investment in research in infectious disease, further driving the virology market. Also, The HIV and AIDS epidemic in Brazil is stable, with a prevalence in the general population of 0.5%. As per the Avert Organization, in 2019, around 920,000 people were living with HIV, and around 48,000 new infections were recorded. Many steps have been taken by the country with regards to HIV prevalence, driving the virology market. For instance, in 2017, Brazil started providing dolutegravir (DTG) to 100,000 people. Thus, increasing healthcare expenditure and the adoption of new treatments drive market growth in the forecast period. Rise in prevalence of viral infectious diseases is the major factor driving the growth of the SAM virology market.

COVID-19 has created shock waves with severe health, economic and social consequences, which will affect many countries in South America in the future. The COVID-19 pandemic has brought the risk of major disease outbreaks and highlighted countries’ lack of preparedness to fight them. Climate change, urbanization, and the lack of water and sanitation are contributing to fast-spreading outbreaks. Argentina was already in a fragile socio-economic situation before the COVID-19. According to the National Institute of Statistics and Censuses (INDEC), economic activity fell by 10.3% in May 2020, while annual inflation reached 42.8% in June 2020. The fragile health systems in many of these countries and their limited means to finance or drive vaccine development on their own have also put the large population at heightened risk. The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted healthcare services across South America. For instance, in Guatemala, the COVID-19 has severely impacted HIV services; HIV testing decreased by 54.7% in 2020. As per the PAHO, since the onset of the pandemic, the number of people being tested for HIV in Latin America has dropped sharply. COVID-19 is expected to exacerbate this situation, especially in countries with fragile health systems.
