ADOC COVID-19 Preparedness Update

ADOC COVID-19 Updates


November 16, 2021

The Alabama Department of Corrections (ADOC) issues COVID-19 reports every Tuesday that detail new information recorded over the previous week (previous Monday – Friday). The Department’s website dashboard is updated with this information shortly after our weekly COVID-19 report is issued.

The following information is up to date as of November 12, 2021:

INMATE POPULATION

As a precautionary measure in response to a recent increase in cases of COVID-19 at Staton Correctional Facility (Elmore, Alabama), the ADOC elected to test all inmates living at the facility on November 9, 2021.

Out of the one thousand two hundred ninety-seven (1,297) asymptomatic inmates tested at Staton Correctional Facility, seventy-five (75) new cases were identified. No inmates refused to participate in this mass testing process.

The ADOC also has confirmed that an additional three (3) inmates have tested positive for COVID-19 at other facilities during this reporting period:

  • Donaldson Correctional Facility – (Bessemer, Alabama) – one (1) inmate
  • Draper Quarantine Intake Facility – (Elmore, Alabama) – two (2) inmates

Newly identified positive case(s) may be symptomatic or asymptomatic. All existing quarantine protocols held in-place or newly implemented as recommended by the ADOC’s contracted State Medical Director are being maintained at each facility where newly identified positive inmate(s) are currently housed.
