Since the COVID-19 virus outbreak in December 2019, the disease has spread to over 100 countries across the globe, and the World Health Organization declared it a public health emergency on January 30, 2020.
COVID-19 has affected the economy in three main ways: by directly affecting the production and demand for drugs and vaccines, by creating disruptions in distribution channels, and through its financial impact on firms and financial markets. Due to nationwide lockdowns, several countries such as China, India, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Egypt, and others faced problems with regard to the transportation of drugs and vaccines from one place to another. However, COVID-19 had a positive impact on the Europe animal healthcare market, owing to the increased research and development activities for COVID-19 veterinary vaccines and antiviral medicines.
