A clavicle fracture is a break in the collarbone, one of the main bones in the shoulder. Most clavicle fractures occur when a fall onto the shoulder or an outstretched arm puts enough pressure on the bone that it snaps or breaks. #OrthoInfo covers how to treat this painful injury.

The Alabama Department of Public Health (ADPH) and the Alabama Medicaid Agency are receiving reports of citizens being contacted at their homes for the purpose of being offered COVID-19 vaccinations at home. In addition, individuals claiming to be employees of the Medicaid Agency are contacting recipients by phone or in person and offering free COVID-19 testing.
State Health Officer Dr. Scott Harris, Medicaid Commissioner Stephanie McGee Azar and Attorney General Steve Marshall warn that this is a scam and anyone who is contacted about an offer for free in-home COVID-19 testing or vaccinations should immediately end the contact.
The public is encouraged to report such calls to the Attorney General’s Consumer Protection Hotline at 1-800-392-5658 or via email to ConstituentAffairs@AlabamaAG.gov.

HMC does not anticipate getting any more COVID-19 vaccine; therefore, we are no longer accepting patients onto a waiting list to receive the vaccine. If your physician office sent us paperwork to put you on the HMC waiting list and you have not yet been given your first dose of the vaccine, you will not receive the vaccine at HMC.
Anyone who received their first dose of COVID vaccine at HMC will get their second dose at HMC. When receiving the first dose, patients were given a card noting the date to return to HMC for their second dose.
COVID-19 vaccinations for people in group 1A and those age 75 and over are being given at the Jackson County Health Department in Scottsboro.
