EFDA handles Ethiopia medical device registration (The Ethiopian Food and drug Authority). The Ethiopian Food and Drug Authority (EFDA) is in charge of overseeing the regulation of medical devices in Ethiopia.
Prior to registration and marketing authorisation, the EFDA assesses the quality, safety, and efficacy of the medical devices. Ethiopia is a country in what is commonly referred to as the Horn of Africa, a region in northeastern Africa.
In Ethiopia, urbanisation has been growing steadily, with development occurring twice as quickly. According to reports, hunger and poor sanitation exacerbate infectious (contagious) diseases, which are Ethiopia’s main medical problems. Over 44 million people, or more than half the population, do not have access to safe water.
The Ethiopia Medical Devices Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected people’s livelihoods and economic activity all around the world. The coronavirus continues to spread despite rising vaccination rates, having an unparalleled impact on people’s lives.
Ethiopia is hardly an exception; COVID-19 has drastically altered Ethiopian livelihoods, with important implications for the fight against poverty.
The pandemic has proven to be particularly difficult for policymakers trying to balance measures to address the social and health impacts with initiatives to alleviate the economic strain caused by movement restrictions and the six-month-long State of Emergency, which ended in September.
The pandemic has been compounded by ongoing conflict in Tigray, desert locust outbreaks, and steep inflation. With the recent dissemination of the highly transmissible Delta form and variable effects to date across different regions of the country, the COVID-19 situation is still problematic.
