A global vaccine crisis persists despite progress. This review examines the vaccine market structure, pricing, and policy impacts, proposing solutions for R&D, supply, and delivery challenges.

Area of Science:

  • Global Health
  • Vaccinology
  • Health Economics

Background:

  • Immunization offers significant health benefits, with recent advances in child vaccination in developing nations.
  • A substantial global crisis affects vaccine research and development (R&D), supply chains, and delivery systems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the structure of the global vaccine market, valued at US$6 billion.
  • To investigate the factors influencing vaccine supplier attractiveness.
  • To explore the impact of international pricing disparities and schedule divergence on vaccine access.

Main Methods:

  • Review of the global vaccine market structure.
  • Analysis of the international two-tiered pricing system for vaccines.
  • Examination of the effects of differing national vaccine schedules.

  • Assessment of the U.S. government's role in global vaccination efforts.

    • Main Results:

    • The global vaccine market generates US$6 billion in revenue.
    • High-income countries account for 82% of vaccine revenues but only 12% of doses distributed.
    • Divergent vaccine schedules between high-income and developing countries create access challenges.

    Conclusions:

    • Addressing the global vaccine crisis requires understanding market dynamics and pricing structures.
    • Policy interventions are needed to improve vaccine R&D, supply, and equitable delivery worldwide.
    • Potential approaches to ameliorate the crisis are discussed, including policy and governmental roles.
