State health officer doctor scott harris said today that around half to two thirds of all adults in alabama will be eligible for the vaccine on monday.
All adults could become eligible for the vaccine in a few weeks though.
Harris said today that alabama will follow president joe biden's request for the country and open up eligibility to all adults on may 1st.
He says though that it could be much earlier than may.

This current schedule for national guard clinics is going to take 6 weeks to complete.
