For example, in the United States, travel warnings are issued by the Department of State and are often called warden messages. On its passport site, the US State Department warns travelers about possible international dangers using four types of travel advisories. In the most dangerous situations, the department issues “Level 4” travel alerts, urging U.S. travelers to reconsider whether they should travel to a country at all. In Canada, Liberia is listed as a high-risk for travel. The travel advisory which is updated periodically, is solely for the consumption of citizens of those countries seeking travel to countries like Liberia where the potential for risks have been cited.
