Market Drivers: Self-Care and Early Detection in the Spotlight
The pandemic has significantly reshaped consumer behavior in healthcare, increasing reliance on self-diagnosis and at-home testing kits. This shift is further reinforced by:
Rising prevalence of chronic diseases like diabetes and cardiovascular conditions.
Frequent outbreaks of infectious diseases, including COVID-19 and influenza.
Technological innovation in test kits making them more accessible and user-friendly.
Growing regulatory approvals that bolster product availability and trust.
However, limited awareness in low-income regions and the high cost of diagnostic tools remain key challenges in expanding market penetration.
