疟疾问题在埃塞俄比亚非常严重，多年来一直是造成疾病和死亡的主要原因。为了编写这篇综述文章，我们使用谷歌scholar、Science direct和Pub Med等不同的搜索引擎，使用不同的关键词和短语，从开放获取期刊中检索与该主题相关的不同相关研究文章。根据文献综述，埃塞俄比亚在控制和消除疟疾方面已经努力了60多年。为了评估消除疟疾的可行性，使用了世卫组织消除疟疾的评估工具/建议。根据世卫组织的参数，该国在最近几十年中在防治疟疾方面取得了显著进展。通过大量使用杀虫剂残留喷雾、长效杀虫剂处理过的蚊帐、化疗、改进诊断和病例管理、提高实验室质量、疟疾合作伙伴的持续支持以及埃塞俄比亚政府对疟疾预防和控制的政治承诺，疟疾发病率和死亡率大幅降低。因此，过去的成就和目前的活动使我们考虑到至少到2030年或更晚在埃塞俄比亚消除疟疾的可能性。考虑到迄今取得的成就和目前的努力，埃塞俄比亚有可能一劳永逸地消除疟疾
The problem of malaria is very severe in Ethiopia where it has been the major cause of illness and death for many years. The purpose of this review article is to assess the feasibility of malaria elimination in Ethiopia To compile this review article, different relevant research articles related to the topic from open access journals were searched using different searching engines such as Google scholar, Science direct, and Pub Med using different key words and phrases Based on review of the literature, Ethiopia has been trying to control and eliminate malaria for more than 60 years. To assess feasibility of malaria elimination, the WHO assessment tools/recommendations for elimination of malaria were used. Based on WHO parameters, the country has achieved remarkable progress on the fight against malaria during the most recent decades. Malaria morbidity and mortality have been reduced dramatically with intensive use of insecticide residual spray, long lasting insecticide treated nets, chemotherapies, improved diagnosis and case management, improved quality of laboratories, continued support from malaria partners, and political commitment of the Ethiopian government towards malaria prevention and control. Hence, the past achievements and current activities, have led to consider the possibility of malaria elimination in Ethiopia at least by 2030 or beyond Considering the triumphs achieved so far and the current undertaking efforts, malaria could possibly be eliminated from Ethiopia once and for all
