In one case, a person who was ejected from a vehicle and died was “counted as a COVID death” because the virus was in his system, Franson claimed.
In a “dangerous video” released Thursday, two state lawmakers called for a full audit of the death certificates for Minnesota’s 4,723 COVID-19 deaths.
“When people live in fear, they make irrational decisions and they look at the world through a different lens. Their life is based on fear instead of living their life to their full potential,” said state Rep. Mary Franson, R-Alexandria, who obtained some of the “raw files” of COVID-19 death certificates from the Minnesota Department of Health.
“That information is public data. Anybody can request that data,” she added, a point both she and Sen. Scott Jensen, R-Chaska, stressed repeatedly throughout their video.
“What Representative Franson has uncovered is not quibbling. We are not trying to be political. We are just trying to follow facts. These facts you got didn’t come from some secret treasure trove. This came from the Department of Health,” said Jensen, a practicing physician who was investigated by the Minnesota Board of Medical Practice on two occasions this year after anonymous complaints were filed against him.
“Somehow we need to have some master’s or Ph.D. candidates be hired by the Department of Health and come in and literally audit the death certificates so that we know what we’re dealing with. Because if we have a 40% inflation rate of what’s really our death tabulation for COVID-19 in terms of underlying cause of death, is that number going to hold as we get out to the present 4,500 deaths? Things like that.”
