As public healthcare-focused organizations strive to improve vaccination coverage, the preventive vaccines market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 12.74% from 2024 to 2032. The global preventive vaccines market is estimated to be USD 143.59 billion by 2032 from USD 55.08 billion in 2024.
Preventive vaccines are created to kill the bacteria or viruses in our body through antibodies produced by the prevention vaccination. The presence of antibodies in the body reduces the chance of getting affected by any virus. Although vaccines were solely responsible for the global eradication of small polio, several vaccine-preventable diseases, such as measles and mumps, are still a threat. COVID-19 has been recently added to the list. The vaccine market accounts for only 5% of the global pharmaceuticals market. However, recently there has been substantial growth owing to the rising incidences of cancer & HIV cases. Nevertheless, there has been rapid growth over recent years, with the vaccine market magnifying in value from USD 5 billion in 2000 to almost USD 25 billion in 2013. Furthermore, World Health Organization (WHO) growth estimations indicate the market may increase in value to nearly 60 billion in 2020, with the arrival of new therapeutic, preventive, and adult vaccines.
The global preventive vaccines market is different from any other product market. Compared to the pharmaceutical market, it is relatively small, although proliferating. There are presently nearly 120 new vaccines in the pipeline of various multinational companies across the globe set to hit the market in the next few years. The global Preventive Vaccines Market concentrates on both the supply and demand sides. It is highly regulated and primarily dependent on public purchasers and donor policies. It has distinct features that increase the complexity of assessing and understanding pricing and procurement in their context.
Infectious diseases such as polio, measles, pneumonia, HIV, and other diseases can be prevented by vaccination. The concept of vaccination has dramatically reduced the mortality, morbidity, and complications associated with a wide range of infectious diseases. More than 1400 clinical trials evaluating various types of preventive vaccines have been registered, indicating the rapid pace of development in this field. Over 1.5 million children under 5 love their lives to vaccine-preventable diseases yearly. By WHO, more than 1400 epidemic events were tracked in 172 countries between 2011 and 2018. Approximately 3 million deaths are preventable with effective immunizations every year.
Growing investments by the key market players and increasing government funding for vaccine developments propel global market growth. Furthermore, the rising prevalence of the disease, technological advancements to decrease the new vaccine development time, and initiatives by NGOs contribute generously to the growth of preventive vaccines.
However, massive capital expenditures, stringent regulatory policies, and high costs associated with treatment are a few factors inhibiting the growth of the global Preventive Vaccines Market. Furthermore, the lack of skilled and efficient labor required for manufacturing the vaccine among the pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies is curbing the market growth rate. In addition, the high cost of the raw materials required in the laboratories to develop a vaccine impedes the market’s growth rate.

Over 20% of the market share was occupied by the live, attenuated vaccines segment in the global preventive vaccines market in 2023. Live attenuated vaccine helps to prevent natural infections that an individual experiences in their lifetime. Live-attenuated vaccines are beneficial for diseases such as influenza, chickenpox, measles, polio, and TB. In addition, it produces an immune system to fight against diseases supporting segment growth.
The recombinant vector and conjugate vaccines segments were in second and third position in leading the market share. An increasing number of people with cancer and other Infectious diseases significantly influence this segment's growth. In addition, increasing expenditure on healthcare, especially in urban areas, is promoting the segment's growth.
The inactivated vaccines segment has been growing faster for the past few years. The rise in awareness among physicians over the availability of different vaccines for various diseases is gearing up the market's growth rate. Inactivated vaccines are made of dead or inactivated viruses and bacteria, which is different from other diseases.
The pneumococcal segment held the dominating share of the preventive vaccines market in 2023 with the rise in pharmaceutical companies’ investments by private and public organizations. According to the statistics published by World Health Organization (WHO), nearly 15% of deaths in children below five years of age were due to pneumonia in 2019. Some viruses, bacteria, etc can cause pneumonia. Therefore, the neglect of vaccines results in an increased mortality rate. However, the growing prevalence of improving treatment procedures to promote the patient's well-being will eventually outshine the market growth.
The Influenzas segment also has significant growth in the market. According to Families Fighting Flu (FFF), nearly 1 billion people worldwide suffer from influenza, which is affected by seasonal changes yearly. The burden of flu disease is increasing rapidly due the factors such as increasing virus spread, seasonal changes, and environmental pollution. World health organization tracks the spread of the influenza virus and how the vaccine works for the affected people. As a result, researchers are focusing on developing the vaccine in advanced stages based on the patient's behavior.
North America accounted for the most significant share of the global market in 2023, owing to the rapid adoption of the latest technologies and innovative drugs & vaccines. In addition, the rise in pharmaceutical companies’ scale and ongoing research in the biotechnology field is leveraging the growth of the preventive vaccines market in North America. In Canada, the National Advisory Committee on Immunization plays a major role in recommending newly approved vaccines to public health experts. The Canada Immunization Guide (CIG) depends on the recommendations of the national advisory committee and other factors. The committee also focuses on conducting programs for vaccine dosages and administration by the people to prevent the spread of deadly diseases. During the pandemic, Canada had the highest market share due to the government's strict rules of getting vaccinated to prevent the spread of the disease. According to previous studies, it is proven that childhood vaccination is the most effective in controlling and preventing disease. Therefore, the Healthcare sector in America took registrations of newborn babies and administered the vaccine at different levels to reduce the spread of dangerous diseases in their life.
Europe had a substantial share of the global market in 2023 due to the rise in the geriatric population and growing economies in this region.
