COVID-19 Impact on Middle East and Africa Malaria Treatment Market
Since its emergence in December 2019, the COVID-19 virus has spread to nearly every country on the planet, prompting the World Health Organization (WHO) to declare it a public health emergency. One of the major causes driving the expansion of the antimalarial medicine industry is the exponential increase in COVID-19 cases around the world. According to the World Health Organization's most recent data, there were around 1.8 million confirmed cases of coronavirus illness worldwide. Chloroquines can prevent the virus from infecting individuals because they can affect the pH at the cell surface. As a result, it is believed that hydroxychloroquine pills will block the virus that causes COVID-19. With an increase in COVID-19 infections around the world and hydroxychloroquine as a viable treatment, demand for antimalarial medications to combat the coronavirus may rise.
