Alabama’s population is dwindling for the first time in state’s history as a result of COVID-19’s deadly spread throughout its residents.
“Our state literally shrunk in 2020, based on the numbers that we have managed to put together, and actually by quite a bit,” State Health Officer Scott Harris said in a Friday press conference, according to The Guardian. “2020 is going to be the first year that we know of in the history of our state where we actually had more deaths than births.”
