World Vaccine Market Promises Growth Exceeding $15 Billion by 2012, Says New Report Available From Piribo.com

Piribo, the online destination for business intelligence for the biotech and pharmaceutical industry, has just added a report on the exciting and growing global vaccine market. "Vaccines: The World Market," forecasts that the market will reach $15 billion by 2012.

(PRWEB) March 25, 2007 -- The potential to increase the global vaccine market is huge. Currently there are major issues hindering the wider usage of current vaccines on a global level. Never the less, most of these issues are being seriously addressed by the world health community. There are also several vaccines with significant potential in the pipeline and adult vaccines are being developed and used at a faster rate than seen before.

There is an imbalance in vaccine usage in developing countries, where preventable diseases continue to go unchecked due to cost and supply issues. Shortages and delays as well as safety issues are also having an impact on the global market.

New vaccines currently in the development pipeline are emerging as promising alternatives to prevent or mitigate diseases. Expectations are high as numerous vaccines for HIV, several forms of cancer, and other diseases are in various stages of testing. As many as five new vaccines to treat cancer may soon be available, creating an $8 billion dollar cancer vaccine market by 2012.

In addition, adult vaccines will increase at a faster rate, bolstered by strong influenza and hepatitis vaccine sales. However, pediatric vaccines continue to play a dominate role in the market.

This comprehensive report explores the nearly 200 drugs in development, provides in-depth company profiles, and includes more than 55 tables and figures including current and forecasted revenues. It is essentially reading for information buyers interested in this exciting industry.
