Offender Population Testing
The Alabama Department of Corrections remains committed to maintaining transparency – without compromising security – throughout the duration of the COVID-19 outbreak, and has been working to aggregate relevant data to keep the public informed about the health and well-being of those who live and work in our facilities. Moving forward, we will provide data regarding COVID-19 testing across the correctional system, detailing up-to-date information in the below chart about our inmate population. The ADOC's COVID-19 testing data is accumulated through end-of-day on the previous business day.

*Please note that the ADOC's COVID-19 testing data is accumulated through end-of-day on Mondays and Thursdays for public consumption. Reports are generated on Tuesdays and Fridays, with the exception of confirmed positive inmate tests or COVID-19 related inmates deaths, which are disclosed as soon as possible. Inmate deaths reported as COVID-19 related include inmates who tested positive for COVID-19 prior to their passing; however, their autopsies are pending, therefore, the cause of death cannot be confirmed.

Employee and Contract Staff
The ADOC does not test its staff for COVID-19, nor are we legally able to require staff testing as an employer. If a staff member becomes symptomatic, he or she must contact his or her physician, who subsequently will order a COVID-19 test so long as certain CDC criteria are met. Per HIPPA regulations, the ADOC is not allowed to inquire about a staff member’s personal health conditions, including the results of a COVID-19 test. Staff, of their own free will, can self-report a positive test result to our Office of Health Services. When the ADOC verifies a positive test among our staff through self-reporting, the Department will then provide a public update on the result with no identifying personal information included.
Employee Self-Reported Positive Tests: 31
Major Facilities: 27
Community Work Release/ Work Centers: 4
