* Danyelle McNeill, a spokesperson for the ADH, said previously that any time the number of vaccine doses administered drops in a county, it is because the doses were mistakenly attributed to the county or were moved to another county.

** McNeill said the ADH performed a “data cleanup for some vaccination numbers,” which is why the total number of vaccine doses administered in the state dropped Wednesday.One year ago: COVID in Union County and Arkansas Union County
