MONROVIA, LIBERIA-The United States Embassy in Monrovia has clarified an Emergency Supplies and Household Preparedness notice by which some citizens have been gripped with fear and panic.

In the notice, the Embassy Security Department urged U.S. Mission personnel in Liberia to take proactive steps, including adequate food supplies at home in case of emergency.
