The 90 Miles Mystery Box: Episode #2134

You have come across a mystery box. But what is inside?

It could be literally anything from the serene to the horrific,

from the beautiful to the repugnant,

from the mysterious to the familiar.

If you decide to open it, you could be disappointed,

you could be inspired, you could be appalled.

This is not for the faint of heart or the easily offended.

You have been warned.

An undercover journalist obtained all the death certificates from Minnesota dating back to 2015 and took a closer look at the ICD codes (International Classification of Diseases) that were assigned by the CDC. It turns out that the CDC has been manipulating the ICD codes to conceal the fact that covid vaccines are a cause of death on the original death certificates.

Covid-19 vaccines were listed as a cause of death on death certificates, even though there was systemic pressure to ignore the fact

Death certificates list all the known and suspected causes of death (CoD) that played some role in the demise of the decedent. The person who fills out the death certificate writes a text description of the causes of death, but the final ICD codes are determined by the CDC bureaucracy.

States send all their death certificates to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) for analysis. The CDC uses algorithms to match the causes of death to corresponding ICD codes. The International Classification of Diseases (ICD) is a medical classification list provided by the World Health Organization (WHO). The ICD has been around since the 19th century and serves a broad range of uses globally, providing critical knowledge on the extent, causes and consequences of human disease and death worldwide. The ICD standardizes data collection and enables large scale research. It supports payment systems, service planning, administration of quality and safety, and health services research. The ICD-10 (10th edition) was used during this time.

When the covid-19 vaccine was rolled out via Operation Warp Speed, the CDC maintained that the injection was safe. The government agencies considered any potential side effects as rare or mild. This led the entire medical establishment to turn a blind eye to any serious or lethal vaccine adverse events, in a medical environment that was financially incentivized to deceive, in a culture that bullied those who made honest observations and drew objective conclusions regarding vaccine side effects.

Still, there were plenty of cases where medical professionals could not deny that the covid-19 vaccines played a role in a person’s demise. In these cases, the covid-19 vaccine was listed as a cause of death on the death certificate. However, when the CDC received the death certificates, they often CONCEALED the vaccine’s role in causing the death, as seen below. The CDC routinely committed data fraud by refusing to assign the proper ICD code for vaccine side effects to match the cause of death listed on the death certificate.

For the covid vaccines, there are only two ICD-10 codes that can account for vaccine side effects – T88.1 and Y59.0. The T88.1 code refers to: other complications following immunization, not elsewhere classified. The Y59.0 code refers to: viral vaccines as the cause of death. There is also a code for infection following immunization (T88.0) and a code for any vaccine or biological substance, unspecified (Y59.9). These codes were used properly in three instances in the Minnesota death certificate data because the CDC could not conceal the vaccine’s involvement in these deaths without fundamentally rewriting the death certificates.

On one death certificate, Y59.0 was properly listed. The patient suffered an adverse reaction to COVID-19 vaccination, less than four hours before the person died of acute elevated myocardial infarction. The pathology review found "heart sections with multiple foci of full thickness myocardial hemorrhage and inflammatory cell infiltrate” and “also foci of inflammatory cell infiltrates in endothelium and epicardium; edematous epicardium.”

On another death certificate, both T88.1 and Y59.0 were properly coded for a death certificate that made it clear that covid-19 vaccine side effects were a contributing cause of death. These examples show that the CDC had at least two ICD codes to properly classify deaths that were caused by the covid-19 vaccine. However, on several occasions, the CDC concealed the fact that covid-19 vaccine was a cause of death on death certificates.

CDC uses misleading ICD codes to conceal deaths caused by covid-19 vaccines

In one instance of fraud, the CDC listed U071 (COVID) as the cause of death, when the death certificate clearly stated that a second dose of the covid vaccine caused heart complications just ten hours prior to the death. Instead of addressing the most immediate evidence, the CDC coded the death as “COVID” – an infection that had previously resolved 7 months prior to...

Why the 'Super Wealthy' Are Fleeing Norway at a Historic Pace

Norwegian lawmakers forgot a very simple economic lesson, and now they can do little but watch as the wealth creators in their country depart.

In 2022 Norway’s third richest man, Kjell Inge Røkke, announced in an open letter to shareholders he was moving to Lugano, Switzerland.

“My capital will continue working in Norway,” wrote the fishing magnate turned industrialist who launched his empire four decades ago with a 69-foot trawler he bought while saving money working on ships off the coast of Alaska.

Røkke, who Forbes estimates has a fortune of $5.1 billion, will cost the Norwegian government an estimated 175,000,000 kroner annually (roughly $16 million) with his departure. That might not sound like a lot of money, but Røkke is not the only wealthy entrepreneur leaving Norway, The Guardian notes.

“More than 30 Norwegian billionaires and multimillionaires left Norway in 2022, according to research by the newspaper Dagens Naeringsliv,” reports wealth correspondent Rupert Neate. “This was more than the total number of super-rich people who left the country during the previous 13 years, [the paper] added.”

Did you catch that? More “super rich” Norwegians left Norway in 2022 than during the previous 13 years combined. The reason wealthy Norwegians are fleeing the country is not a secret.

Following its 2021 electoral victory, the Nordic nation’s Labor Party made good on its promise to soak the rich. Norway is one of just a handful of OECD countries that still taxes net wealth, and the Labor Party increased the country’s wealth tax to 1.1 percent despite warnings that such a move would “trigger capital flight and threaten job creation.”

Capital flight is exactly what happened, and it has left the Norwegian government with less revenue.

Norwegian Business School professor emeritus Ole Gjems-Onstad estimated that the wealthy Norwegians took with them a total fortune of $54 billion when they left. This means that the wealth tax, which was projected to increase revenue by nearly $150 million annually, will result in about 40 percent less revenue than it currently generates. Luca Dellanna, a management advisor and author, points out that Norway collected about $1.46 billion on its wealth tax in 2019. But the exodus of the wealthy will result in an estimated $594 million in lost revenue.

Those trying to understand how Norway’s policy could backfire so badly should look to the work of the late Nobel Prize-winning economist Robert Lucas. Lucas, a longtime professor at the University of Chicago, received the top prize in economics for research that became known as the Lucas Critique, which exposed various problems with macroeconomic modeling.

Lucas believed that to predict policy outcomes it was essential to first grasp that all action is individual behavior, and humans are rational creatures who will respond to policies in rational ways — even to policies designed to fool them.

“Microeconomics assumed people were rational,” economist David R. Henderson pointed out in a recent Wall Street Journal article following Lucas’s death. “Why shouldn’t macroeconomics make the same assumption?”

This insight helped Lucas win the Nobel Prize, and it helps explain why Norway’s wealth tax backfired so badly. It was always naive to assume wealthy individuals would continue to bear Norway’s wealth tax. After all, one needn’t have a PhD in economics to realize that wealthy people are unlikely to sit idly by as lawmakers take more and more of their wealth (not income, mind you, wealth). As early as the 17th century, Jean-Baptiste Colbert, the finance minister to France’s Louis XIV, observed the delicate nature of taxation.

“The art of taxation consists in so plucking the goose as to obtain the largest possible amount of feathers with the smallest possible amount of...
