Health care staff nationwide report increased violence and harassment as frontline heroes fade from public cheers. Hospitals issue panic buttons and limit public access amid assaults and angry confrontations over safety rules, masks, and vaccine measures.
Evacuees arriving in the United States are spread across military bases for final security checks and processing with the State Department. They undergo full medical screening including COVID-19 and other vaccines, delaying further arrivals to Kansas.
The evacuation proceeds immediately while vetting has stretched long, says Michele Green of the International Rescue Committee Wichita. Locally, Afghan evacuees will receive medical, employment, and education support from Kansas groups. Wichita already hosts about 200 Afghan connections aiding newcomers to feel at home. Community volunteers and donations rise as groups urge support, stressing mutual benefits for Kansans and new arrivals. Contact IRC Wichita, Catholic Charities of Southwest Kansas, or Catholic Charities Northeast Kansas for involvement.
