A year into COVID-19, rural Alabama bears brunt of public health crisis


What about Coosa County? 
The central Alabama county, home to less than 11,000 residents, has no hospital. Its county health department closed its doors in 2016, shuffling residents to county departments to the north and east for services. 
Hutcherson, fresh to Coosa County’s emergency management director position after years at the state EMA, wondered what his residents were supposed to do. 
“We were being forgotten,” Hutcherson said. “They needed someone to remind them: ‘Look, we re here, too.’ So much emphasis was put on getting vaccinations to health departments, and we don t have one.”
Rural residents have for years fallen through the cracks of Alabama’s health care and economic infrastructure. But a raging pandemic has exposed those cracks as fault lines, revealing disproportionately fatal outcomes and higher rates of disease in rural communities isolated and with limited access to health care.  ....

No hospital, no health department and no vaccines: One Alabama county's COVID-19 struggle


No hospital, no health department and no vaccines: One Alabama county’s COVID-19 struggle

Coosa County is one of eight counties in Alabama without a hospital and the only one without a public health department – leaving it with no outlets to distribute vaccines for COVID-19.
State officials began distributing 500 doses to county health departments last week. But Coosa County didn’t receive any, said Sheldon Hutcherson, director of the county’s emergency management. A list of vaccine distribution sites published by the Alabama Department of Public Health didn’t include any locations in Coosa County. ....

For rural counties, details of vaccination campaign still unclear


Ask Coosa County emergency management director Sheldon Hutcherson how a COVID-19 vaccine would be distributed in his rural jurisdiction, and he’ll tell you he’s still not sure.
“As far as the details, I’ve not been told any,” Hutcherson said.
It’s likely that sometime next year, a vaccination campaign will come to Coosa County, which lies halfway between Anniston and Montgomery, with a population of about 11,000. 
The drug company Pfizer was approved for its vaccine on an emergency basis Friday, and Alabama health officials say they plan to begin distributing the available doses as soon as they can. According to plans released by the Alabama Department of Public Health, the first shots are likely to go to hospital workers, with a wider public vaccination campaign likely to be conducted through local public health departments.  ....
