,,,"Despite the scale of the damage, there were no reported deaths or critical injuries from the tornado itself. Officials said only a few injuries had been reported. In Sedgwick County, three people were hurt, including one woman who sustained serious injuries.
Kansas governor Laura Kelly declared a state of disaster emergency for the hardest-hit areas. The declaration makes state resources available to help local jurisdictions with response and recovery efforts in areas affected across the state.
In December, a devastating tornado hit the US mid-west, leaving a trail of destruction in five states. President Joe Biden declared a federal emergency after nearly the entire town of Mayfield, Kentucky was wiped off the map. As many as 57 people were killed."
