1 This

category also includes countries that have experienced widespread transmission but are transitioning to being declared free of

Ebola. The World Health Organization is responsible for determining when a country will be declared free of Ebola virus transmission.
Public health authorities in these countries should maintain active surveillance for new cases of Ebola and identify, locate and
monitor any potential contacts.
2 The World

Health Organization declared the end of the Ebola outbreak in Liberia on May 9, 2015, after 42 days (two incubation

periods) had passed since the last Ebola patient was buried. On May 13, 2015, CDC changed the country classification for Liberia to a

country with former widespread transmission and current, established control measures. CDC is currently reviewing the situation
and will update its Monitoring and Movement Guidance, based on considerations for the safety and protections of persons in the
United States. Until an update is posted, the current guidance will continue to apply to travelers who have been in Liberia within 21
days of entering the United States.

3 Transmission in

urban areas indicates the potential for spread through international air travel. Control measures in these countries

are considered of uncertain effectiveness based on inability of public health authorities to identify, locate, or monitor a large
proportion of potential contacts. Persons arriving from all areas of these countries should be screened upon entry.
4

In these countries, which previously had locally-acquired or imported Ebola cases, at least 42 days (two incubation periods) have

elapsed since the last day that any person in the country had contact with a confirmed Ebola case.
