Vesicular Stomatitis is a viral disease affecting the livestock population such as pigs, horses, ruminants and causes vesicles, erosions and ulcers on the udder, feet and mouth. The disease is contagious and spread via insect vectors, animal contact, and exposure to saliva or fluids. It is endemic in Southwestern and Western United States as the region have experienced a number of vesicular stomatitis outbreaks in the past decade.
This results in economic loss to livestock producers and affects the international trade of animals and animal products. Effective management of animals helps the disease transmission in the herd. Humans living in enzootic areas such as the animal handlers also have a high chances of infection and lead to the influenza like symptoms. The morbidity rate for the disease in animals is also highly variable, and ranges from 5% to 90%.
Only symptomatic treatment with some precautionary measure are available for the disease which consists of supportive care including the prevention or treatment of secondary infections.
Human population growth, income growth and urbanization increases the demand of livestock products and thus the livestock population which however also increases the therapeutic products demand for animals and thus fuels the vesicular stomatitis therapeutics market. Recently in 2015, Vesicular stomatitis outbreak affected around 800 premises in 8 US states. These outbreaks are also increasing the demand for the therapeutics.
Market for the vaccination of vesicular stomatitis is also high because of the unavailability of antiviral treatments. Government efforts in this direction are also the driving factors for the growth of the market. Although cases occur throughout year but occurrence of outbreaks in the US after long intervals of 5-10 years limits the therapeutic market to grow. Less research activities and product launches in this area restricts its market to expand.
