Insulin is a protein hormone that helps control the blood sugar level in patients whose bodies cannot produce enough insulin. Insulin lowers the glucose level in the blood by increasing glucose uptake into fatty tissues and muscles. It can be injected into the legs, back of arms, abdomen, or buttocks. In addition, insulin not only helps manage diabetes but also helps acute complications of diabetes such as hyperosmolar hyperglycemic states and diabetic ketoacidosis. The devices that help deliver insulin in the patient's body include insulin syringes, insulin pumps, insulin pens, insulin inhalers, and insulin jet injectors.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
COVID-19 is an infectious disease that originated in the Hubei province of the Wuhan city in China in December, 2019. The highly contagious disease, caused by a virus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is transmitted from human to human. Since its outbreak, the disease has spread to almost 213 countries around the globe with the World Health Organization declaring it a public health emergency on March 11, 2020.
Pharmaceutical and biotech companies together with governments around the globe are working to address the COVID-19 outbreak, from supporting the development of vaccines to planning for medicine supply chain challenges. Currently, around 115 vaccine candidates and 155 molecules are in the R&D pipeline. Moreover, commonly used drugs such as hydroxychloroquine have witnessed a dramatic surge in demand for the management of COVID-19. Such high demand for these drugs has presented huge opportunities for manufacturers of COVID-19 management drugs, as many developed countries are facing a shortage of these drugs. Thus, the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries are expected to witness significant growth in the future, owing to the demand for vaccines and treatment drugs for COVID-19.
With COVID-19, the supply chain of the raw materials required to manufacture human insulin drugs and delivery devices has been disrupted in many countries. In addition, the market growth of human insulin drugs and delivery devicesis also declining as the manufacturers of these drugs and devices have slowed down their production because of the pandemic. Therefore, COVID 19 is expected to have a significant impact on human insulin drugs and delivery devices market.
