Global Post-polio Syndrome Treatment Market Highlights over 2022 – 2030
The global post-polio syndrome treatment market is estimated to grow at a modest CAGR over the forecast period, i.e., 2022 – 2030. The growth of the market can be attributed to the high prevalence of polio in underdeveloped countries, due to unavailability of polio vaccines in low-income economies. Polio was once a deadly disease, causing mass deaths and paralysis, but cases of polio have been a rarity after the development of polio vaccines, especially in developed countries. The World Health Organization (WHO) reported around 175 active polio cases in 2019. However, the prevalence of polio is high in underdeveloped countries, due to lack of efficient healthcare facilities, which is estimated to boost the market growth. Post-polio syndrome surfaces up decades after the initial infection, which is generally after the age of 30 years. The symptoms of this syndrome are severe and require continuous medication and other treatment, which is estimated to boost the growth of the market. Moreover, the developing public healthcare infrastructure and high government expenditure for the development of new drugs is anticipated to significantly fuel the growth of the market.
