COVID-19 Impact on Global Infectious Disease Diagnostics Market
COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by the most recently discovered novel coronavirus. Largely unknown before the outbreak began in Wuhan (CHINA) in December 2019, COVID-19 moved from a regional crisis to a global pandemic in just a matter of a few weeks. The COVID-19 pandemic negatively affected the overall sales of most of the companies but had an positive impact on the infectious disease diagnostics market because of the use of infectious disease diagnostic methods for COVID-19 testing. Lockdowns resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic caused people to delay undergoing health checkups, thus affecting the number of tests being performed and sales of reagents.
Based on product & service, the infectious disease diagnostics market is segmented into reagents, kits, and consumables; instruments; and software & services. In 2020, the reagents, kits, and consumables segment accounted for the largest share of this market. The frequent purchase of these products due to their recurrent usage drives the market growth of this segment.
The infectious disease diagnostics market is segmented into immunodiagnostics, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), clinical microbiology, isothermal nucleic acid amplification technology (INAAT), DNA sequencing & NGS, DNA microarrays, and other technologies. In 2020, the immunodiagnostics segment accounted for the largest share. This can be attributed to the increasing use of immunoassays in COVID-19 testing, POC infectious disease testing, the development of novel immunodiagnostic tests, and the rising trend of automation.
