Fatal Eosinophilic Myocarditis after mRNA Injection
Pfizer-BioNTech BNT162b2 mRNA Initial Allergic Reaction Fatal in 71-year Old Man
By Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH
We have heard about thousands of cases of acute myocarditis in young men after COVID-19 vaccination. Among 987,217 US/domestic VAERS Safety Reports through September 22, 2023, there are 5051 cases of myocarditis. Rose et al reported that 90% of these are men and many occur on shots two and three.
Onishi et al reported a A 71-year-old man with type 2 diabetes mellitus and essential hypertension who was found collapsed following the administration of the first dose of BNT162b2 COVID-19 vaccine. It was estimated from the inoculation record that approximately 4–5 h had passed since the vaccination. He had many complications with the resuscitation and died after 83 days.
The main teaching points are:
COVID-19 vaccine induced myocarditis can be very rapid in onset and ultimately fatal. We should not assume cases are mild and and transient as told to us by public health agencies.
Older patients have lesser reserves to survive a cardiac arrest.
Eosinophilic myocarditis is caused by the mRNA-lipid nanoparticle directly as there was probably insufficient time to produce enough Spike protein to cause fulminant damage and cardiogenic shock.
Fatal myocarditis is an unacceptable complication in even one case since the COVID-19 vaccines have not been shown to reduce transmission or the composite of hospitalization and death in randomized trials. This life was lost for no possible theoretical benefit.
Future mRNA vaccines for influenza and other illnesses are likely to cause the same fatal eosinophilic myocarditis as this appears to be related to the mRNA-LNP complex and not the Spike protein.

I was 67 yo female in very good health. when I reluctantly got my 1st Moderna in Feb 21. My 95 yo mother's nursing home required family to be vaxxed to enter. One year of window visits was inhumane. So I got the shot despite misgivings. I had read the research papers and the weasels all died... The day after my shot I was surprised how sore my arm was but I didn't think much about it. By the next day the soreness extended over my left shoulder into my chest and down my left arm. It was a nonstop deep dull ache. I was very tired and had 0 energy. I returned to the pharmacy where I got the shot and asked if if my pain was normal. They blew me off and said it had nothing to do with the vaccine. I called my GP and they also Said they didn't know what it was but it wasn't the vaccine. I called my cardiologist office and (unfortunately my cardiologist of 16 years had just retired). They said if I thought I was having a heart attack to go to the emergency room and asked no more questions. In February 2021 there was not enough pain in the world to get me to go to an ER or a hospital. My chest arm and shoulder pain lasted 4 weeks. Though normally quite active I simply didn't have the energy to do much of anything.
In the end, this ( "blobiness") might have really helped me. I see these elite athletes collapsing at moments of greatest exertion. I have never gotten my energy level back but I don't have the chest pain anymore after the initial 4 weeks.
I made a Vaers report in July 2021 expecting someone would want details. Not only did no one call for details, my report was deleted. By Sept 2021 I got through to ask why my report was deleted and CDC claimed " it was an accident" and I think reinstated it. This entire situation is out of a horror tale.
I had a MCG heart scan in Feb of 2023. I got an alarmingly high score showing myocardial injury and remodeling. Still trying to figure what to do.
I have been wondering whether myocarditis increased more visibly in younger men because it's normally so rare in that group. But the total number of vax-induced cardiac deaths could be larger in older cohort, while remaining less statistically visible, because heart disease is more common at that age. Either way, it's a big problem.
