The Alabama Department of Public Health said all COVID-19 vaccination appointments through county health departments are full.

ADPH “is aware that the COVID-19 Vaccine Hotline: 1-855-566-5333 is experiencing difficulties. Staff continues working to expand vaccine scheduling capabilities at the call center,” the agency said in an announcement. “At present, there are no more appointments available at county health departments.”

Callers to the vaccine hotline can supply their information to be placed on a waiting list and will be contacted as soon as more appointments are available.

ADPH said demand for the COVID-19 continues to exceed supply with more than 326,000 healthcare workers and nearly 350,000 people in Alabama who qualify for the vaccine because they are 75 and older.

Alabama has received 271,925 vaccine doses and, as of the week ending Jan. 9, has administered 87,138.

ADPH launched the COVID vaccination  hotline last week and it was quickly overwhelmed with calls, receiving more than 1.1 million in 24 hours. Online registration is under development but not available yet.
