Influenza (flu) is referred to an upper respiratory system contagious disease caused by the influenza virus. Pandemic and seasonal are the two influenza types. Seasonal influenza is sub-divided into three major types, namely A, B, and C influenza. It is mainly transmitted through public places from infected person’s sneeze droplets serving as a disease carrier. As per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2017-2018 symptomatic illnesses of over 49,000,000 and around 79,000 deaths were caused due to Influenza, in the U.S. Pregnant women, geriatrics, pediatrics, low immunity patients having chronic illness, and healthcare professionals are at a high risk of getting infected with influenza.

Global Influenza Diagnostics Market: Dynamics
High influenza prevalence and increasing funding for influenza research diagnostics are key factors, expected to drive growth of the global influenza diagnostics market over the forecast period. As per the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2018, influenza resulted in over 3-5 million severe illness cases and over 290,000-650,000 fatalities worldwide. The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID), in 2014, partnered with The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Autoimmune Disease Coordinating Committee (ADCC) supporting The Center of Excellence in Influenza Research and Surveillance (CIERS) for the influenza virus’ better understanding. High number of influenza-prone geriatric population, increasing awareness along with great demand for more efficient and advanced diagnostic tests for influenza are expected to drive the global influenza diagnostics market growth.
Global Influenza Diagnostics Market: Regional insights
North America is expected to hold a dominant position in the global influenza diagnostics market, owing to the CDC’s robust initiatives in order to control the disease spread by actively executing preventive measures along with diagnosing the disease with the help of its National Influenza Surveillance System. Increasing Rapid Diagnostic Tests (RDTs) availability has fueled these implementations further in the U.S.
Asia Pacific is projected to robust growth in the global influenza diagnostics market during the forecast period, due to countries actively participating in preventive measures for countering the influenza incidence. For instance, the CDC in 2014 funded nine cooperative agreements for non-researched-related bilateral influenza in the South-East Asian Region (SEAR), as an initiative for responding to avian, pandemic, and seasonal influenza.
