Abstract:
Healthcare in East Africa faces
numerous challenges stemming from limited resources, infrastructure deficits,
disease burden, and health inequities. This editorial article provides a
concise overview of the key challenges and discusses potential solutions to
improve healthcare delivery in the region. Strategies focusing on healthcare
infrastructure investment, financing, and workforce shortages are crucial for
improving health outcomes and reducing health inequities in East Africa. To
present this editorial article, we collected the latest articles that have
been published in the following databases: PubMed, Google Scholar, and
EMBOSS. East African countries must collaborate with governments,
stakeholders, and international partners to address healthcare challenges,
implementing targeted interventions and fostering partnerships for equitable,
accessible, and high-quality healthcare. |
