Witness Testimony

Dr. Charles Hoffe, a family physician and long-serving rural emergency room doctor in Lytton, British Columbia, testified regarding his clinical observations following the rollout of COVID-19 vaccines. He described early concerns about gene-based vaccine platforms and stated that he began observing neurological symptoms, chronic pain, weakness, and other health issues in patients shortly after vaccination. He reported conducting D-dimer blood tests on a small group of patients, stating that a portion showed elevated levels consistent with clotting activity, which he interpreted as possible microvascular injury.
He testified that after communicating safety concerns to colleagues and public health officials, he was warned not to express negative views about the vaccines in his professional capacity and was later removed from emergency room duties after advising a previously infected patient that a second dose was unnecessary due to natural immunity. He stated that vaccine injury reports he submitted through the government reporting system were denied and characterized the national surveillance system as inadequate. He distinguished between the governmental CAEFISS reporting system and the non-governmental CAERS reporting initiative.
Dr. Hoffe further presented data and international comparisons which, in his view, demonstrated increased infection and hospitalization rates among vaccinated populations and raised concerns regarding immune system effects and fertility trends. He described an upcoming disciplinary hearing before the College of Physicians and Surgeons and asserted that regulatory bodies were dismissing safety signals. He concluded that professional pressure discouraged open scientific debate and that the pandemic response constituted a broader ethical test for institutions and individuals.
