“If the chip wasn't in the vaccination, then put it in a tablet now,” is probably the ulterior motive of some users when they see this video clip from Albert Bourla, Pfizer boss.

Which video is it about?

The clip in question is a 26-second excerpt from a longer video. In this, Albert Bourla tells the World Economic Forum in Davos about a tablet - a "new technology from Pfizer" that contains a "tiny biological chip" that "sends a wireless signal to the relevant authorities as soon as the medicine has been digested." the accompanying text in a Facebook post:

The video excerpt…

comes from a longer video from 2018, which can be found HERE Here Bourla answers a question from the audience (from minute 45:45) about patient participation and that there is no guarantee that a patient will actually take a prescribed medication.

This is followed by Bourla's execution, which can be seen in the video excerpt:

“I will use an example: I think it's fascinating what's happening in this field right now.

I mean FDA approved the first electronic pill – if I can call it like that. So it is a basically biological chip that is in the tablet and once you take the tablet and dissolves into your stomach, sends a signal that you took the tablet. So imagine the applications of that compliance the insurance companies to know that the medicines that patients should take they do take them. It is fascinating what is happening in this field.” “I would like to give an example: I find it fascinating what is currently happening in this field. I mean, the FDA approved the first electronic pill - if I can call it that. It is a biological chip that is in the tablet and, as soon as you take the tablet and it dissolves in your stomach, sends a signal that you have taken the tablet. So imagine that this way insurance companies know that patients are taking the medications they should be taking. It’s fascinating what’s happening in this area.”

Alfred Bourla

Which tablet is this about?

The approved the first drug with a digital intake tracking system in November 2017

“Abilify MyCite (aripiprazole tablets with sensor) has a sensor built into the pill that records when the medication is taken. The product is approved for the treatment of schizophrenia, the acute treatment of manic and mixed episodes associated with bipolar I disorder and as an adjunct therapy for depression in adults.”

FDA, November 13, 2017

Detailed information can be found on the website of Otsuka America Pharmaceutical , the manufacturer of the drug.

In the video recorded in 2018, Bourla talks about a medical technology innovation from another manufacturer.

Not a Pfizer drug

The Facebook post suggests that it is a recording of this year's World Economic Forum, which took place from May 22nd to 26th. However, the video excerpt comes from 2018.

In addition, Pfizer CEO Bourla was not talking about a drug from Pfizer, but about “Abilify MyCite” from the manufacturer Otsuka America Pharmaceutical.

Since the Corona pandemic, Pfizer has been widely associated with vaccines and medications against Corona / COVID-19. However, the drug Bourla mentioned is used for schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and depression.

Conclusion

The video excerpt is already four years old.

Alfred Bourla refers to a drug manufactured by Otsuka America Pharmaceutical.
