Lassa Fever Market

Market Overview:

The 7 major Lassa fever markets are expected to exhibit a CAGR of 3.69% during 2024-2034.

The Lassa fever market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Lassa Fever Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Lassa fever refers to a viral hemorrhagic fever caused by the Lassa virus. This condition is primarily transmitted to humans through exposure to household items or food contaminated with the urine or feces of infected rodents, particularly the multimammate mouse. The symptoms of the disease are usually gradual and typically start with fever, general weakness, and malaise. After a few days, an individual suffering from Lassa fever may also experience headaches, muscle aches, bleeding gums, breathing problems, sore throat, nausea, vomiting, coughing, diarrhea, abdominal pain, etc. In some cases, the infection can even progress to severe hemorrhagic fever, which can be fatal. The diagnosis of this condition is based on a combination of the patient's medical history, lifestyle choices, clinical features, and various laboratory studies. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) test for immunoglobulin M antibodies and antigens is recommended to detect the infection with high sensitivity and specificity. The healthcare provider may further perform various diagnostic procedures, such as cell cultures, plaque neutralization assays, polymerase chain reactions, immunofluorescence assays, etc., to validate the presence of viruses among patients.

The rising cases of percutaneous injuries, which enhance a person's likelihood of exposure to infected individuals or rodents, are primarily driving the Lassa fever market. Moreover, the increasing incidences of numerous associated risk factors, including inadequate sanitation, crowded living conditions, the use of contaminated medical equipment, poor food hygiene practices, etc., are also bolstering the market growth. In addition to this, the widespread adoption of intravenous antiviral drugs, such as ribavirin, which work by inhibiting viral replication in the body to reduce symptoms of the ailment, is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Furthermore, multiple key players are making extensive investments in R&D activities to introduce better diagnostic tools that can detect low levels of the virus in patient samples and improve public health interventions. This, in turn, is also creating a positive outlook for the market. Additionally, the ongoing development of a live-attenuated vaccine for preventing the disease, since it can stimulate a more potent and broader immune response, thereby reducing viral infection, is expected to drive the Lassa fever market in the coming years.
