Although the death toll in the U.S. is nearing 1 million lives lost, signs continue to suggest that an end is in sight for the COVID-19 pandemic, the most disruptive global health crisis in a century.
About 56% of the clinical data recorded by BioWorld in 2022 target therapies for oncology, as well as infectious and neurological diseases, but news on COVID-19 efforts continue to dwindle compared with last year.
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to wind down, the value of biopharma company deals with nonprofit and government entities, as well as grants, are down nearly 64%. Through mid-May 2022, BioWorld has tracked 309 bio/nonprofit deals worth $1.12 billion, and a total of 129 grants valued at $505.85 million.
