霍亂疫苗

The U.K. NaTHNaC recommends the oral cholera vaccine for some travellers whose activities or medical history put them at increased risk, travelling to areas of active cholera transmission. These risk factors include: aid workers; those going to areas of cholera outbreaks who have limited access to potable water and medical care; travellers for whom the vaccination would be considered potentially beneficial, such as chronic medical conditions. The U.S. CDC recommends the cholera vaccine for travellers who are 18-64 years of age and who plan to travel to areas of active cholera transmission. CDC notes that most travellers do not travel to areas of active cholera transmission, and that safe food and water practices can prevent many cholera infections.

Liberia中的安全性

人身安全

利比里亞犯罪率高企。 2024年蓋洛普全球報告《法律與秩序指數》連續第二年將利比里亞評為非洲最不安全的國家。近45%的利比里亞人報告在過去一年中遭遇金錢或財產盜竊，28%的人聲稱遭受襲擊，這使得利比里亞的襲擊率位居全球最高。小偷小摸和投機取巧現象普遍存在，但有組織的犯罪團夥也在全國各地活動。犯罪者通常攜帶刀具、砍刀或槍枝。武裝搶劫、行兇搶劫和入室盜竊等暴力犯罪的目標既包括當地人，也包括外國人。在蒙羅維亞的曼巴角和辛科爾地區，外國遊客經常在此停留，因此外國公民曾遭到搶劫。犯罪者白天在夜總會、海灘和計程車上犯案。據外國人報告，計程車上曾發生過攻擊和搶劫事件。由於首都許多地方停電，夜間犯罪率顯著上升。夜間出行有嚴重風險。在蒙羅維亞，警察的身影隨處可見，但在鄉村地區卻迅速消失。警察可以提供協助，但有些警察會索賄。公眾對安全機構的信任度低。執法部門的腐敗導致許多受害者不願報案。對警力不足或可能遭到犯罪者報復的擔憂加劇了這種不安全感的惡性循環。

極端暴力

武裝搶劫屢見不鮮，尤其是在城區和公共海灘。犯罪者通常攜帶刀具、砍刀或槍枝。犯罪集團主要由組織鬆散的年輕人組成，他們透過種族、家庭或衝突時期的聯繫聯繫在一起，從事武裝搶劫和暴力犯罪。據信，許多團夥成員是內戰時期的前戰鬥人員。這些團夥裝備精良，暴力傾向強烈，使用的武器包括彎刀、單管獵槍和AK-47突擊步槍。犯罪者毫不猶豫地使用暴力，許多搶劫案也涉及攻擊。由於公眾對警察和司法系統缺乏信任，暴徒暴力和私刑行為屢見不鮮，並經常造成人員傷亡。監獄越獄事件時有發生，逃犯逃走後十分絕望，很可能是為了找車輛或金錢。性暴力是一個嚴重且普遍存在的問題。強姦和性侵犯的發生率很高。據稱，政府官員曾實施性暴力行為。有些強姦案涉及儀式因素。

政治動盪

利比里亞政局整體穩定，但抗議示威活動頻繁。近年來，民眾因經濟困難、貪腐和治理問題而爆發抗議活動。 2025年7月，「團結與信任新一天」組織了以「我們人民」為口號的大規模抗議活動，反對政府。 2024年12月，立法僵局和議會大廈火災加劇了政治緊張局勢。示威活動有時會導致暴力衝突或當局使用催淚瓦斯。抗議活動可能迅速升級，警方可能使用催淚瓦斯或武力來應對。應避免前往政治建築附近或示威活動發生的區域。 2019年和2020年，發生了針對經濟動盪的大規模抗議活動，警方發射催淚瓦斯驅散抗議者。執政當局與反對派民主變革大會黨之間的政治緊張局勢造成了兩極化的局面。那些利用經濟困難煽動反政府情緒的人發表煽動性言論，加劇了日益緊張的政治緊張局勢。

應避免的區域

西點是蒙羅維亞人口稠密的社區，以高犯罪率和落後的基礎設施而聞名。它是利比里亞最危險的地方之一。除了猖獗的犯罪之外，惡劣的衛生條件也導致居民感染結核病等疾病。紅燈區、水岸、剛果鎮、埃爾瓦樞紐以及蒙羅維亞區的所有市場區域犯罪活動猖獗。蒙羅維亞的布羅德街、凱里街和格利街是犯罪活動猖獗的地區。靠近科特迪瓦、幾內亞和塞拉利昂邊境的農村地區治安狀況難以預測，道路狀況不佳，手機訊號有限，警察很少。即使是外國人居住和經常光顧的地區也不安全。蒙羅維亞的曼巴角和辛科爾是外國人經常居住的地方，據報道發生了多起搶劫、襲擊和其他犯罪事件。犯罪者白天還會在夜總會和海灘活動。
