The global market for COVID-19 Diagnostic Tests was valued at $16B in 2020 and is expected to grow at a CAGR (2020-2025) of 6.5%. The market is segmented into molecular tests, antigen tests, and antibody tests.
Molecular diagnostic tests to diagnose COVID-19 were available in the USA a few months after the outbreak in China. On February 4, 2020, the US FDA issued an emergency use authorization (EUA) enabling the CDC 2019-nCoV Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel. Since then authorized molecular laboratories, molecular diagnostic companies, and in-vitro diagnostic companies have developed several COVID-19 diagnostic tests. The U.S. FDA has authorized more than 262 coronavirus diagnostic tests under EUAs, which include 205 molecular tests, 51 antibody tests, and 6 antigen tests.
In this new report, the publisher provides timely coverage and an assessment of the market opportunities for COVID-19 diagnostic tests. The initial demand for antibody tests has subsided due to a shift in the guidance from health authorities to focus on asymptomatic and symptomatic current infection cases. The WHO announced it will provide 120 million rapid COVID-19 tests to low-and middle-income countries. Abbott and Roche have scaled their production of rapid antigen tests and are expected to produce more than 50 million tests per month of BinaxNOW™ COVID-19 Ag Card and STANDARD Q SARS-CoV-2 Rapid Antigen Test respectively. Additionally, Point of Care (POC) antigen tests Veritor™ Plus System from BD, LumiraDx Sars-CoV-2 Ag from LumiraDx, and Sofia SARS Antigen Test were issued FDA EUA and will augment the rapid testing capabilities at hospitals and near-patient CLIA waived settings.
Combination tests that detect common flu A, B, and COVID-19 are in demand ahead of the flu season. SARS-CoV-2 and influenza A/B test from Roche and Xpert Xpress SARS-CoV-2, influenza A and B, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) from Cepheid (Danaher Company) has been issued FDA EUA.
