Vaccine resistance may be fading across Kansas, but the gulf is widening among those who have concerns


Vaccine resistance may be fading across Kansas, but the gulf is widening among those who have concerns
By David Condos
New survey results show that reluctance to get COVID-19 vaccinations has dropped in Kansas.
At the same time, worries about vaccine side effects seem to be increasing.
Federal statistics analyzed by the Kansas Health Institute, or KHI, show that roughly 22% of Kansan adults reported feeling uncertain about getting the vaccine in April. That’s down from 30% in March and 47% in January. (KHI, like the Kansas News Service, gets significant support from the Kansas Health Foundation.)
It’s the first analysis of data from the US Census Bureau’s Household Pulse Survey since Kansas opened up vaccine access to all adults at the end of March. And it shows that more than three quarters of Kansas respondents had either gotten their shot or planned to do so. ....

Will Kansas youths 12+ get the COVID-19 vaccine? Officials hope so.


This wasn t really a surprise  Koksal s mother, Beth, works for a public health coalition in Garden City.
But Koksal didn t need any urging from his parents in order to be convinced to get the vaccine.
It s an easy call for me to get the vaccine because, why not? Why wouldn t I? Koksal said. Why wouldn t I get it if I can help prevent the spread, you know, especially when I have a lot of people in my life that are vulnerable.
Now that he s been vaccinated, Koksal has become the de facto expert for his friends and classmates on what to expect if they get the shots. ....

Sen. Mark Steffen, R-Hutchinson, testifies in support of his bill to prohibit employers from mandating COVID-19 vaccination for their employees.
TOPEKA Sen. Mark Steffen pushed colleagues Thursday to support his legislation banning employers from requiring workers to be vaccinated against COVID-19, saying lawmakers should reject the idea that society is more important than the individual.
Senate Bill 213 would prohibit employers from taking adverse action against employees who refuse the COVID-19 vaccine, and would impose a $1,000 fine for employers who violate the restriction. Steffen said this would preserve freedom of choice for individuals and relieve employers from the liability of imposing a medical procedure on an unwilling worker. ....

Kansas Senate bill would block employers from requiring COVID-19 vaccine


Lawmakers are considering a move to bar employers from mandating vaccinations, an effort that experts believe has its roots in the anti-vaccine movement and comes as millions of Americans are getting inoculated against COVID-19.
Nursing home facilities in other states have required employees to get the vaccine because of their work with high-risk individuals, although there are no confirmed reports of workplaces taking that step in Kansas.
But vaccine requirements are usually most prevalent for other diseases, such as influenza or hepatitis. Restaurants will often require shots to keep diners safe and hospitals and day care facilities will do the same, especially if a worker is interacting with immunocompromised individuals. ....
