COVID-19 Vaccine Induced Myocarditis in Older Men
“No Risk-it, No Biscuit,” Coach Bruce Arians Pays the Price
By Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH
It is ironic that some of the most vigorous promoters and strongest voices for COVID-19 vaccination in public view have also felt the bite of vicious side effects such as heart inflammation. Former NFL coach Bruce Arians has been known for his slogan "No risk-it, no biscuit," which encourages aggressive play calling. When he was asserting in the press that all of the Tampa Bay Bucs and staff were fully vaccinated in 2021, little did he know he was going to risk his cardiac biscuit with probable COVID-19 vaccine-induced myocarditis a year later.
Arians, age 70, is a prostate cancer survivor and was hospitalized twice for chest pain in 2017 while coaching the Arizona Cardinals. So he knew he was taking risks with COVID-19 vaccination tagged with FDA warnings for heart damage that can lead to heart failure and sudden death. What he may not have known is that myocarditis can strike in his age group as shown by Rose and McCullough and when it occurs in his age group, it may compound a common problem of atherosclerotic coronary heart disease.
Fortunately, Arians is out of the hospital now and recovering but yet faces an uncertain prognosis which can only worsen with more shots. Coach Arians should rethink how he conceptualizes risks for his players and staff. Arians' coaching philosophy has been summed up with one phrase: "No risk it, no biscuit. You can't live scared." His former quarterback in Arizona, Carson Palmer, says, "You play for him, you see he just has guts. He will let it rip, let it fly no matter what."[i] Time for players, coaches, staff and owners to take the responsible track and inform the public of their mounting cases of COVID-19 vaccine induced myocarditis, express regret, and warn others of this serious and completely avoidable problem. No need to take risks here coach, keep them for the field.

Even smart people can be informationally blind. My multi-jabbed lawyer sister and her multi-jabbed pharmacology professor husband (with cancer) now have "THE COVID" and are taking "THE PAXLOVID."
Sister informed me yesterday that I should not send her any more information. A nurse friend said the same and said she has "moved on."
Sister, husband, and nurse friend trust Big Pfarma and alphabet military-biomedical complex implicitly, research only within their own echo chamber, and will not consider any dissenting views. I USED to trust those entities implicitly until I started researching outside the echo chamber and listening to dissenting views.
A friend of mine often says "A mind is like a parachute. It only works when open." Thank you Dr. McCullough for opening the minds of so many, including me.
Good morning doctor, thank you for this wonderful article I found it very insightful and will be sharing it on all the media social platforms. Thank you. I am your ally and I wish and pray for all and longevity, happiness and freedom. I know how stressful the situation you have encountered having your license temporary Lee suspended or revoked. We both know that this was done very nefariously and I will not stand for it. I know you will be in Puerto Rico in a couple of weeks and I hope to get a recap of that weekend. Thank you so much for staying so lucid and on track to remedy the wrongs and you’re not alone. Warmest regards, Dr. Horelick 🌎🕊❤️🌞🌻🙏😇
