AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Public Health Watch: KDHE says three Kansans with “high-risk exposure” to Andes hantavirus are being monitored at KU Health System after contact tied to the MV Hondius cruise outbreak; KDHE and CDC guidance notes people aren’t considered infectious unless they become symptomatic, and officials stress there are still no suspected or confirmed Kansas cases. Water Safety: Frontenac’s boil-water advisory remains in effect as crews repair water main issues, with KDHE able to lift it only after safe sample results. Opioid Harm Reduction: Kansas passed HB 2250 allowing naloxone (Narcan) to be used up to 10 years past its expiration date, starting July 1, 2026. Community & Environment: Hays opened the Seven Hills Park splash pad for the 2026 season, and Wichita residents pressed lawmakers on Medicaid, school funding, and data centers at a legislative forum. Local Governance: Wyandotte County commissioners approved steps tied to the state’s “bathroom bill” and approved rate increases for trash, stormwater, and sanitary sewer services.
