Will incentives help boost COVID-19 vaccines in Alabama? Updated 1:11 PM; Facebook Share In the race to vaccinate people in Alabama, some groups haven’t kept pace. Young white men in rural areas, including Alabama, have been slow to line up for shots. Fisher Anderson, 17, of Jacksonville, had no plans to get vaccinated. “I didn’t really want to get it because I didn’t need it,” Anderson said. But on Saturday, May 15, he pulled into the garages at Talladega Superspeedway to get his first shot after taking two laps around the track. Anderson and his father participated in an event aimed in part at people like them. The Race to End COVID, a partnership between the Alabama Department of Public Health, the Emergency Management Agency and Talladega Superspeedway, is offering access to the track in exchange for free COVID vaccines or tests from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
