摘要

埃塞俄比亚于 1980 年开始实施国家免疫计划 (NIP)。国家免疫计划将疫苗数量从 6 种扩大到 2023 年的 14 种以上。然而,关于引入新疫苗和其他疫苗相关事宜的决定并未在全国范围内进行系统审议。因此,在过去十年中,除全球免疫咨询小组外,建立一个国家机构来审议疫苗和接种事宜的必要性得到了强调。本文介绍了埃塞俄比亚国家免疫咨询小组的成立和成就。埃塞俄比亚国家疫苗接种咨询小组成立于 2016 年,在为新疫苗引进提供建议和改善常规疫苗接种方面一直发挥着积极作用。外部评估表明,E-NITAG 功能强大,在加强埃塞俄比亚疫苗接种实践方面发挥了关键作用,尤其是在 COVID-19 大流行期间。缺乏专职的秘书处工作人员是将 E-NITAG 的作用扩大到响应卫生部要求之外的主要瓶颈。必须通过建立一个秘书处来加强 E-NITAG,使其最终发展成为一个独立机构,以解决国家免疫计划需要解决的与疫苗相关的复杂问题。

The Ethiopian National Immunization Technical Advisory Group (E-NITAG): Establishment, Achievements and the Future.

The National Immunization Program (NIP) was introduced in Ethiopia in 1980. The NIP has expanded the number of vaccines from six to more than 14 in 2023. However, decisions on new vaccine introduction and other vaccine-related matters were not systematically deliberated nationally. Thus, the need to establish a national body to deliberate on vaccine and vaccination matters, in addition to the global immunization advisory groups, has been emphasized in the last decade. This article presents the establishment and achievements of the Ethiopian NITAG. The E-NITAG was established in 2016 and maintained its active role in providing recommendations for new vaccine introduction and improving the delivery of routine vaccines. The external assessment indicated the E-NITAG was highly functional and played a critical role in enhancing the vaccination practice in Ethiopia, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. The absence of a dedicated secretariat staff was the major bottleneck to expanding the role of the E-NITAG beyond responding to MOH requests. The E-NITAG must be strengthened by establishing a secretariat that can eventually grow as an independent institution to address complex vaccine-related issues the NIP needs to address.
