Egypt Hepatitis C Testing Market, By Test By Technique, By End User, By Region, Competition Forecast and Opportunities, 2027

The Egypt Hepatitis C Testing Market is expected to grow at an impressive rate in the forecast period. Hepatitis C is a viral infectious disease affecting the liver, from liver inflammation to liver misfunctioning. It mainly occurs due to the transition of infected, contaminated blood to other healthy bodies through various means. It is challenging to understand HCV in a short period as it takes decades to show the symptoms. The outcome of Hepatitis C disease is well known by people, making them concerned about their health. Hepatitis C Testing Market is going to experience an increase in market share due to awareness and prevention of HCV in Egypt. According to NLM (national library of Medicine) estimation, there will be a downfall of 95% of HCV cases compared to 2013 and going to reach 280,000 in 2030. Hepatitis C is one of the significant reasons for death in Egypt, which is a concern for the people of Egypt. Additionally, Historical mistakes, National and international initiatives, increasing population, and technological advancements or dependence are other reasons that are projected to influence the growth of the market segment through 2027 positively.

Growing awareness about HCV is boosting the market.

According to NLM, one out of ten Egyptians aged between 15-59 suffers from chronic HCV infection, which means they have created antibodies. 7% of the population is affected by chronic Hepatitis C infection, which is 4.1 million. The figure mentioned earlier indicates the impressive market for business as a large number of people are suffering from HCV. Thus, the requirement for medicine and testing kits is going to increase, fulfilling the demand. Ignorance of hepatitis C can lead to liver problems and even liver cancer, a more significant concern for people. In response to saving the life of people, many national and international institutions started campaigning throughout the country to treat hepatitis C patients. As per a survey, out of 1000 people, six increasing people are patients of hepatitis, estimated 170,000 new cases every year to add to the 11.5 million patients suffering from the disease. The National Committee for Control of Viral Hepatitis (NCCVH), the Egyptian government, the public, NGOs, Foreign organizations, the world bank, and different pharmaceutical companies are running initiatives and putting their combined effort into treating HCV. Hence, the measure of the above stakeholder will impact a positive trend in Egypt's market share in the hepatitis C testing market.

The government has launched many initiatives and policies in the healthcare sector, such as conducting the survey, establishing national guidelines & treatment centers, and increasing funding for HCV treatment by up to 90%. These steps will impact HCV treatment and expand the market demand for hepatitis C testing. All the factors mentioned above are expected to drive the expansion of the Hepatitis C Testing Market share.
