Already trailing the nation, Alabama sees pace of COVID vaccines slow

Just 32 percent of Alabama’s population had gotten at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. That put Alabama ahead of just one state, neighboring Mississippi. But when it comes to full vaccinations, which require a second shot for Moderna and Pfizer, only 21 percent of Alabamians are completely vaccinated. That’s the lowest mark in the nation... Between April 14 and April 26, the 7-weekday rolling average for vaccine doses in Alabama fell by nearly 11,000 doses per day - a decline of 27 percent. Vaccines had slowed down in every Alabama county by April 16, including huge decreases in some rural areas in south Alabama.
