Low vaccine acceptance remains a public health threat, which is still common among healthcare workers. Therefore, the purpose of this review is to determine the level of COVID-19 vaccine acceptance among healthcare professionals in Ethiopia. This review was reported using the PRISMA checklist. Eleven articles were retrieved, then extracted on Excel, and exported to STATA version 11 software for meta-analysis. The pooled prevalence of vaccine acceptance and it is 95% CI were presented using forest plots. Tests to check heterogeneity and publication bias were done. The estimated pooled prevalence of COVID-19 vaccine acceptance among healthcare professionals in Ethiopia with a random-effects model was 54.59% (95% CI: 42.49, 66.69) through a heterogeneity index (I) of 99.1% ( < .001), which is relatively low. Therefore, it is important to identify and remove any myths or obstacles preventing healthcare professionals from accepting the COVID-19 vaccination.
疫苗接种率低仍然是一个公共卫生威胁，这在医疗工作者中仍然很常见。因此，本综述的目的是确定埃塞俄比亚医疗保健专业人员对 COVID-19 疫苗的接受程度。本综述使用 PRISMA 清单进行报告。检索到 11 篇文章，然后在 Excel 中提取，并导出到 STATA 版本 11 软件进行荟萃分析。使用森林图呈现疫苗接受率及其 95%置信区间的合并患病率。进行了异质性和发表偏倚检验。采用随机效应模型估计埃塞俄比亚医疗保健专业人员对 COVID-19 疫苗的接受率为 54.59%（95%CI：42.49,66.69），异质性指数（I）为 99.1%（ < .001），相对较低。因此，重要的是要确定并消除任何阻止医疗保健专业人员接受 COVID-19 疫苗接种的误解或障碍。
