The Kansas Department of Health and Environment announced in a statement on Jan. 16 that the state will continue to follow the established childhood vaccine schedule instead of adapting the new reduced schedule released by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention on Jan. 5. 

“Lots of local health organizations are looking at [the CDC schedule] right now,” Children’s Mercy pediatrician Dr. Angela Myers said. “This is a big departure from previous recommendations.”

A vaccine schedule shows physicians which vaccines children should receive at certain ages. According to Immunization Program Manager of the KDHE RaNae Allen, the Kansas and CDC schedules were aligned for years, and the changes on Jan. 5 were shocking for the department. 

“We are concerned,” Allen said. “We are watching for guidance from the state.”
