Pfizer CEO not arrested by FBI, fake news circulating on social media


(MENAFN- Bangladesh Monitor) Dhaka: A Canada-based website included a“Beaver Exclusive” claiming that Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla had been arrested on November 5 by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) for fraud. The Beaver Exclusive also claimed that the police ordered a“media blackout” in the USA of the event and that a judge had approved such an order.

However, those are some major yet unsupported claims from the Beaver Exclusive. There is no evidence that the arrest or fraud claims are true in any way.

The Beaver Exclusive was not even specific about their fraud claims, stating that“Bourla faces fraud charges for his role in deceiving customers on the effectiveness of the Covid-19 'vaccine.' Pfizer is accused of falsifying data, and paying out large bribes.”

The Beaver Exclusive continued by saying,“According to an FBI agent that spoke to the Conservative Beaver, Pfizer lied about the effectiveness of the vaccines, and mislead customers about the serious side effects the vaccines can produce. Pfizer is accused of paying off governments and the mainstream media to stay silent.”

Social media accounts, including numerous anonymous ones, began sharing the Beaver Exclusive.

The Beaver Exclusive did not really provide any actual facts and evidence to support its claims. What specifically were the lies? Who was bribed and for what reason? Did anyone make any statements besides a nameless FBI agent? Were there any photos or videos of the arrest?

In fact, that same day, on November 5, Bourla appeared on different TV programmes such as a segment on CNBC.

As far as a supposed“media blackout” is concerned, it is not clear who may have gotten such an order or memo. Anyone who believes that such a media blackout would occur in the US does not understand how legitimate media in this country works.

It would be very difficult for anyone to suppress a big story like a major public figure getting arrested or a vaccine having a major side effect. Nearly every legit reporter would be scrambling to be the first to get such news out there if it had really occurred.
