The senator has been advocating for Alabamians to get the vaccine, saying it will help slow the spread of the virus and lower hospitalizations.

Folks - please get educated about the vaccine. I trust the science and have been vaccinated and I encourage you to do the same. It will slow the spread and keep people out of hospitals. https://t.co/IZp46IPyh2
