The COVID-19 antigen test market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $6.61 billion in 2023 to $7.13 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.9%. The historical period's growth can be attributed to factors such as the outbreak of the pandemic, emergency regulatory approvals, challenges in the supply chain, government initiatives, and global vaccination efforts.
The COVID-19 antigen test market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $9.47 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the expansion of point-of-care testing, surveillance of new variants, implementation of public health measures, market competition, and the persistent threat posed by emerging variants. Major trends expected in the forecast period include the development and approval of next-generation antigen tests, the integration of digital and smartphone technologies for test result reporting, the expansion of testing infrastructure in high-risk settings, a rising demand for home-based antigen test kits, a focus on affordable and accessible testing solutions, and ongoing research for variants-specific antigen tests.
The anticipated surge in popularity of self-administered test kits is expected to drive the growth of the COVID-19 antigen test market in the future. Self-administered test kits are diagnostic tools designed for individuals to use on themselves at home, eliminating the need for medical professionals or trained personnel. The increased adoption of self-administered test kits contributes to the wider availability of COVID-19 antigen tests, aiding in slowing the spread of the virus and enabling individuals to identify infections in the comfort of their homes. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in April 2022, there was a significant rise in the use of at-home COVID-19 tests among U.S. adults aged 18 and older during the Delta-predominant period (August to December 2021) to the Omicron-predominant period (December to March 2022). The use of at-home tests among respondents with COVID-19-such as symptoms increased from 5.7% to 20.1%. Therefore, the increasing popularity of self-administered test kits is a driving force behind the growth of the COVID-19 antigen test market.
An upsurge in testing rates is anticipated to fuel the growth of the COVID-19 antigen test market in the future. Testing rates represent the frequency of diagnostic tests, such as COVID-19 tests, performed within a given population or over a specific period. As testing rates increase, there is a growing demand for COVID-19 testing solutions, including antigen tests. This heightened demand directly contributes to the market's expansion, requiring manufacturers and suppliers to produce and distribute more tests to meet the rising needs. According to the National Institutes of Health in October 2023, the total COVID-19 testing rate ranged from 5.13 to 22,386.63 per 1000 people from October 2022 to October 2023. Therefore, the increase in testing rates is a key driver of the COVID-19 antigen test market's growth.
The shortage of skilled healthcare professionals poses a significant challenge to the growth of the COVID-19 antigen test market during the forecast period. The scarcity of experienced healthcare professionals directly impacts COVID-19 antigen testing, causing delays in testing and diagnosis and placing considerable strain on the healthcare workforce. Addressing this challenge requires additional training and education for healthcare professionals. For example, the World Health Organization reported in June 2022 that the global healthcare workforce shortage was 15 million. Therefore, the shortage of skilled healthcare professionals is hindering the growth of the COVID-19 antigen test market.
