evidence: A baseless article has inspired a flurry of posts on social media that claim Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla was arrested for misrepresenting the effectiveness of his company’s vaccine. "CEO of Pfizer arrested and charged with fraud," reads text in a Nov. 5 Facebook post. "Complete media blackout. Pfizer CEO, Albert Bourla, was arrested at his home in the affluent suburb of Scarsdale, NY on Friday." [...] Based on our research, we rate FALSE the claim that Pfizer’s CEO was arrested in a New York suburb. Public records and appearances confirm Bourla was not arrested for fraud Nov. 5. Pfizer told USA TODAY the claim is baseless, and other fact-checking organizations have debunked it.
