Commotion: mRNA Vaccines and Micro Blood Clots

The Claim

Vaccines using mRNA technology cause tiny undetectable blood clots that will cause most inoculated people to die.

Emerging story

Charles Hoffe, a doctor in British Columbia, made a series of claims about COVID-19 vaccines. One of his claims was that mRNA vaccines can cause tiny, almost undetectable blood clots. It was widely discussed and shared on social media.

According to Hoffe, over 60% of people inoculated with one such vaccine will die over the course of a few years.

Social media users discussed the claim.

Misbar’s Analysis

There’s not much evidence to support Hoffe’s claim. Whatever experiments he claims to have performed have not been found credible. Moreover, Hoffe has done suspiciously little research using only one test.

Dr. Hoffe said that he could only find microscopic blood clots using a d-dimer. D-dimer tests detect broken-down blood clots via a blood sample.

Hoffe isn’t the first to look at vaccines using a d-dimer. An actual study conducted by a group of researchers (Hoffe just did it by himself) used d-dimers along with other methods to discover the rate of people who developed a blood clot after becoming vaccinated.

They used multiple testing methods because they deemed d-dimers to be too “nonspecific,” only using extreme readings as evidence. The study says that individuals developing a blood clot following a dose was extremely rare. A different study used d-dimer tests on COVID-19 patients and found that their levels were extraordinarily high.

Although there have been some incidents of blood clots following the COVID-19 vaccine, and the risk of developing a blood clot is higher after receiving the vaccine, Hoffe’s claim that over 60% of vaccine recipients will get micro blood clots and die is clearly hyperbolic.
