Message for U.S. Citizens: Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever UPDATE

June 16, 2014: Recent reports confirm new cases of Ebola in Liberia as well as cases in neighboring Guinea and Sierra Leone. These cases are from the Foya area and from Montserrado County/Monrovia. The U.S. Embassy continues to monitor the situation closely and to support the efforts of Liberia’s Ministry of Health and Social Welfare (MOHSW) in its public health response.  Experts from the U.S. have assisted the MOHSW in diagnosing suspected cases, tracing contacts, and training medical workers throughout the country, although those experts are not currently in Liberia.

The Message to U.S citizens from April 15, 2014, provides information on transmission of the Ebola virus and easy precautions you can take to protect yourself.  Please follow this link: https://lr.usembassy.gov/u-s-citizen-services/
