The statement said that this kind of wrong information violates public trust and the moral obligation of doctors. In health issues, the public tends to trust doctors implicitly.

The university registrar, Dr. Heidi Oetter, said in a press release: “The public statements of doctors who are in conflict with public health order and guidance are confusing and may cause harm to patients.”

“Those who put the public at risk with misinformation may face university investigations and, if necessary, regulatory action.”

FNHA stated that misinformation from doctors is particularly harmful to indigenous communities because they are greatly affected by the pandemic.

Dr. Nel Wieman, Acting Deputy Chief Medical Officer of FNHA, said: “Due to systematic racism, indigenous peoples are already facing barriers to access to healthcare.”

“Misleading information adds another obstacle when the COVID-19 vaccine needs to be delivered to indigenous people as soon as possible.”

Doctors in British Columbia draw attention for suspicious claims

Although the notice does not list any doctors individually by name, a small number of doctors in British Columbia have become popular among groups opposed to vaccines, masks and other measures aimed at reducing the spread of COVID-19.

include Dr. Stephen Malthouse of Denman IslandHe has participated in numerous gatherings against mask directives and other public health measures, and wrote a widely circulated open letter to provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry in October 2020. The letter Falsely implying that the coronavirus is no more deadly than the flu.

Malthouse told The Canadian Press that he had not seen the university’s statement, but encouraged the regulator to contact doctors who disagree.

He said: “We really need to have a scientific debate on these topics, not just make rules and regulations, and try to just make doctors abide by this policy.” “If doctors have questions about this, I think the college should really be able to They discuss.”

Another BC doctor, anesthesiologist Dr. Duncan Bill’s Code, Appeared in the video with the malt liquor In March of this year, he claimed that he had successfully received vitamins and hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19.Hydroxychloroquine was once praised by Donald Trump as a “game changer”, but it was later proved to be Ineffective against viruses And there are potential risks.

The code tells the Canadian media that he believes his claims are based on scientific research, while health officials and politicians are only telling the story.

So far, there have been 54 adverse events in the 1.85M dose of BC

Recently, Dr. William Hoffe, a family doctor from Lytton, British Columbia, published another letter to Henry on the website of Vaccine Choice Canada, a Canadian anti-vaccine organization, suggesting many unconfirmed COVID-19 vaccines. And false claims.

In a letter dated April 5, Hoff claimed that after injecting the Moderna vaccine into community members, he believed that “this vaccine is clearly more dangerous than COVID-19.”

Published by the BC Center for Disease Control Weekly update Regarding the adverse events that occurred after the COVID-19 vaccination, as of May 1, it was reported that out of the 1.85 million doses administered, there were a total of 54 serious health events, including allergic reactions, seizures, and possible neurological effects . That is a rate of about 0.002%.

Although four people died within 30 days of receiving one of the 1.85 million shots, none of these deaths were caused by the vaccine. In contrast, of the 136,100 confirmed cases in BC, 1,622 have died of COVID-19.

Hoff’s letter also echoes a popular but thoroughly debunked argument among conspiracy theorists, which suggests that mRNA vaccines are actually a form of “experimental gene modification therapy.”

These vaccines include the COVID-19 vaccine produced by Pfizer and Moderna, Can’t change someone’s genes.

The only role of mRNA in the human body is to carry instructions for building proteins-as far as vaccines are concerned, these proteins trigger an immune response. Once these proteins are constructed, the mRNA will be degraded, so it is physically impossible to integrate them into human DNA.

Dr. Zain Chagla of McMaster University in Hamilton said: “In human cells, you cannot convert from RNA back to DNA. This is impossible because we just don’t have a mechanism to deal with it.” Tell CBC News in December.

Hoff has not yet responded to CBC News or Canadian News Agency’s request for comment.

It is not clear whether Malthouse, Code or Hoffe will face any regulatory lawsuits from their professional colleges, and all three of them have obtained unconditional licenses to practice. The college will not release any public information about its investigation unless it is deemed a serious matter.
