The vaccine's primary strength lies in its broad coverage against 13 serotypes of Streptococcus pneumoniae, positioning it as a significant player in the prevention of pneumococcal diseases. The primary risk is the potential increase in competition post-patent expiry in 2028, which could impact market share and revenue.
