Africa
Malaria Diagnosis & Treatment Market Information, by Diagnosis (Rapid
Diagnostic Tests (RDT’s), Molecular diagnostics, Microscopy), by Malarial
Parasite (Plasmodium Falciparum, Plasmodium Vivax, Plasmodium Malariae and
Plasmodium Ovale) - Forecast till 2023
Market Scenario:
According to
World Health Organization (WHO), the global incidence of malaria between 2010
and 2015, fell by 21% and the malaria mortality fell by 29%. However the
African region carries a disproportionately high share of the global malaria
burden and accounted for 90% of malaria cases and 92% of malaria deaths worldwide
and sub-Saharan Africa accounted for 76% of malaria cases and 75% deaths
globally.
Africa
malaria diagnosis market to reach
around $ 2418.92 million from $ 550 million in 2017, by the end of the forecast
period at a CAGR of ~ 28.0 %. While the malaria treatment market will grow by a
CAGR of 8.1% to reach around $ 7180.7 million from $ 4500.0 million in 2016.
The growth of
government programs against malaria and the support given by international
bodies such as WHO is also a market driver. The market barriers include high
cost of imported malaria diagnostic kits, low penetration of healthcare in
Africa, low per capita income, low number of healthcare professionals in Africa
etc. The political causes include massive corruption, low political power of
citizens especially in nondemocratic nations, civil war in regions such as
Malawi etc.
Malaria
is an infectious disease caused by parasitic protozoa of the Plasmodium type.
The symptoms include fever, fatigue, vomiting, and severe headaches and may
lead to seizures, coma, or even death if untreated. Malaria is primarily a
disease of the tropical and subtropical regions. The carrier of malaria is the
female anopheles mosquito and hence there is a seasonal variation in the cases
of malaria. Most cases of malaria are caused by P. falciparum because other
types of plasmodium such as P. vivax, P. ovale, and P. malariae generally cause
a milder form of malaria.

Regional Analysis
The healthcare sector of Africa is divided between private and state.
The public healthcare expenditure accounts for approximately 48 % of total
health expenditure in 2014 with variation in different countries. Local
manufacturing represents a poor outlook which is limited to consumables and
ordinary articles and there are a handful of high tech devices manufacturers.
Africa is extremely dependent on imports for medical devices and imports
account for approximately 90 % of total market for medical devices and Chinese
medical device suppliers dominate the scenario. Among the regions of Africa,
South Africa and Egypt account for 40 % of market. Other important nations are
Nigeria, Morocco and Algeria. Collaboration with large global companies and
technical transfer will remain the key strategy for developing the regional
African market as can be seen by the example of China.
