The influenza diagnostics
market is expected to reach USD 3.3 billion by 2024, according to a new report
by Grand View Research, Inc. Influenza, or "the flu," is an
infectious disease and affects the upper respiratory tract in humans. The
disease is common in children and elderly population (aged 65 years and above).
The disease has a huge impact on public health. Influenza A virus poses a
greater risk as compared to the influenza B virus. The B virus is responsible
for 20% to 25% of infections globally. The growth in the influenza diagnostic
market is attributed to factors such as emergence of technologically advanced
diagnostic tests with shorter turnaround time; initiatives by regulatory
bodies, such as CDC’s seasonal influenza vaccination for prevention and control
of seasonal influenza; and the demand created for influenza diagnosis in the
flu season.
Rapid Influenza Diagnostic
Tests (RIDTs) accounted for the largest share in 2015. RIDTs are tests that deliver
accurate results in approximately 15 minutes. This factor deems them efficient,
which has resulted in the lucrative growth of this segment with the fastest
CAGR. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) holds the second
highest market share following RIDTs, and this can be attributed to the fact
that it provides detailed analytical results, sharper turnaround times, and
high throughput.
Hospitals held the highest
market share in 2015, but Point-of-Care Testing (POCT) is anticipated to overtake
and lead the market in the coming future, owing to the increasing usage of POCT
because of its ease of use and short turnaround times.
North America dominates the
market, due to a high focus of the government and healthcare bodies to control
influenza.

Further Key Findings From the Study Suggest:
·
North America is anticipated to
dominate the global influenza diagnostics market. The high adoption rates of in
vitro diagnostics and presence of technologically advanced medical devices is
expected to drive growth in the region.
·
The Asia Pacific region is
anticipated to be the fastest growing region in the study period. This growth
is attributed to factors such as increasing initiatives by the countries to
counter the incidence of the disease. For instance, CDC reached a cooperative
agreement with South-East Asian Region to fund non research-related bilateral
influenza as a measure to respond to avian, seasonal, and pandemic influenza.
·
The RIDT segment is expected to
grow at a significant rate compared to others and accounts for the largest
share in 2015.
·
This market comprises several
local as well as global players. Some of the major players of this vertical
include Becton, Dickinson and Company, Roche Diagnostics, Alere, Quidel
Corporation, and Thermo Fisher Scientific.
