The Minnesota Board of Medical Practice reviewed and dismissed two charges filed against a state senator and family physician, Dr. Scott Jensen, who in early July questioned whether federal and Minnesota health officials inflated the number of COVID-19 deaths in order to increase the state’s allocation of federal funds.

Jensen later said that probable COVID-19 cases aren't added to Minnesota’s official death totals until after they can be confirmed, but that New York and other states may be inflating the number of COVID deaths.

Jensen has also criticized the use of contract tracing during the pandemic.
