A video on social media is trying to spread doubt about COVID-19 vaccines by falsely claiming the Pfizer head “refuses” to get the vaccine his company created. In fact, Bourla has already received two shots.

The video includes a clip of an old interview Bourla did with CNBC. The interview dates back to Dec. 14, but there is no indication of the date in the video.

In that interview, host Meg Tirrell asked when Bourla planned to get the shot. According to the CNBC transcript, Bourla responded: “As soon as I can, I will. The only sensitivity here, Meg, is that I don’t want to have an example that I’m cutting the line.” He went on to say he is 59, in good health, and not a frontline worker. “My type is not recommended to get vaccination right now,” Bourla said.
