Near the entrance to many public buildings is a bucket of water with a spout and basin. The embassy is the first place I saw this. I noticed it the first day we arrived in Liberia. They have one at each entrance. I thought this was drinking water for the employees and guests who come in from the heat, but I was wrong. These water stations are leftover from efforts to contain the spread of Ebola. The typical water station only has water to rinse hands before entering a building. Now with coronavirus as a common topic of conversation, these buckets of water are popping up around the city. This one is at the entrance to a popular expat hotel. All doors except one were blocked off and an employee stood there to make sure everyone at least got their fingertips wet before entering.
