In 2018, about 86% infants received 3 doses of DTP3 vaccine, protecting them from infectious diseases. Similarly, HPV vaccine was introduced in about 90 countries till 2018. However, high development cost and stringent regulations for commercialization of vaccines are the key restraining factors of the vaccines market. Hence, high cost of product may hamper its access in low and middle income countries. According to the WHO, every year about more than 10 million children die before they reach their 5^th birthdays in low and middle income countries.
