Fact check: Image falsely shows COVID-19 vaccine vaporizer cartridge

The claim: Pfizer produced and marketed a vaccine administered with a vaporizer

With coronavirus infections recently surging in America to well over 1 million per day, the government has authorized more treatments to fight infections while also doubling down on its calls for Americans to get vaccinated.

One Facebook post purports to show a novel approach to COVID-19 vaccines.

The Jan. 3 post shows an allegedly Pfizer-manufactured coronavirus vaccine, contained within a vaporizer cartridge instead of the typical injection.

The photo was widely shared through multiple posts on Facebook, as well as on Instagram, totaling over 2,000 interactions since Jan. 3.

But this isn't a real product.
