The Outbreak of COVID-19 Has Increased Demand for Vaccines Delivery Devices Worldwide

Vaccines Delivery Devices 

Vaccines Delivery Devices are used to administer/delivery vaccines through the subcutaneous or intramuscular routes. A vaccine is a biological preparation that stimulates a person's immune system to produce immunity to a particular infectious disease to protect that person from that disease. Vaccination is an efficient and cost-effective form of preventing infectious diseases. Vaccine administration is the key element to ensure successful vaccination. Many vaccines are administered via needle injection, but may also be administered by mouth or nasal spray.

The different types of vaccines include conjugate vaccine, toxoid vaccine, inactivated/killed vaccine, and live/attenuated vaccine. Needle-free technologies are one of the novel Vaccine Delivery Devices because they are widely used in large-scale immunization programs, and help reduce the complications associated with needle stick injuries and multiple use of a single needle. Other vaccine delivery devices include intradermal delivery devices, micro-needles, jet injectors, disposable syringes, etc. Moreover, needle-free technologies are being widely used due to the increasing awareness to avoid pain associated with needle-stick injuries.

Currently, there is an increasing demand for Vaccines Delivery Devices all around the world due to the emergence of COVID-19 or increasing prevalence of COVID-19. The virus has spread to every corner of the world. Thus, there is an increasing demand for vaccination to prevent the spread of the virus. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), in Germany, from 3 January 2020 to 6:58pm CEST, 7 September 2022, there have been 32,344,032 confirmed cases of COVID-19 with 147,981 deaths, and as of 20 August 2022, a total of 184,429,117 vaccine doses have been administered.

Thus, with the increasing cases of COVID-19, the demand for vaccines delivery devices is also increasing with a rapid pace. Vaccine Delivery Devices are specialized devices that are used to deliver a dose of drug or vaccine through a particular route of administration.
