(KAIR)--The Kansas Department of Health and Environment has issued guidance for Kansans who have been fully vaccinated for COVID-19.

According to a release from KDHE, the guidance is similar to that issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Monday.

According to the release, those who receive their completed vaccination, “may begin to gather in their private homes with other fully vaccinated people, in small groups, without masks or social distancing.”

The guidance also allows for vaccinated people to gather in private homes with unvaccinated people so long as those who are unvaccinated are from a single household and are at low risk for developing severe disease.

The release notes that while private home guidance has changed for those who are fully vaccinated, public health measures in public still apply to everyone. That includes wearing a face mask, practicing social distancing of at least 6 feet, and to practice good hygiene.
