The Alabama Department of Public Health (ADPH) reports hospitalization data daily at 3 p.m. This information is from the Alabama Incident Management System (AIMS). Information related to persons on ventilators or in ICU changes as some patients are removed from ventilators or ICU in one facility while patients in other facilities are being placed on ventilators or in ICU. Since the beginning of the pandemic, a review of data indicates that about 13% of persons require ventilatory support at some time in hospitalization, as well as about 25-30% of person requiring ICU support during some portion of their hospitalization. Cumulative totals for hospitalization, patients in ICU, and patients on ventilators can be found on the Alabama COVID-19 Data and Surveillance Dashboard.
