    DescriptionA video posted on Facebook claims that mRNA COVID-19 vaccines inevitably cause blood clots.

    The July 15 post says “blood clots are a silent killer” and includes a video of Canadian doctor Charles Hoffe, who claims mRNA vaccines cause blood vessels to be lined with COVID-19 spike proteins resulting in blood clots in the majority of vaccine recipients.
