Rising government initiatives, policies and awareness programs have played a significant role in promoting hepatitis B vaccination. Increasing number of hepatitis B infections and deaths has significantly highlighted the importance of preventing hepatitis B infection and its associated health burdens. Various governments have implemented numerous strategies to increase vaccine coverage including mandating hepatitis B vaccination for infants, children, and high-risk populations. Integrating the vaccine into routine immunization schedules and providing financial support for vaccination programs is expected to boost the market share.
For instance, in 2018, according to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India has launched National Viral Hepatitis Control Program. This program is aimed to control and manage hepatitis B and hepatitis C infections. Thus, such government initiatives and awareness programs is anticipated to foster the industry outlook.
