Bruce Arians Won the Super Bowl with Tom Brady, but Is Losing to the Covid Vaccine

The Tampa Bay coach who loudly pushed for his team to get vaccinated is another victim of mRNA vaccine-induced myocarditis, a top cardiologist says.

York High grad Bruce Arians hits career pinnacle with Super Bowl title
With Tom Brady as his quarterback, Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians won Super Bowl LV against the Kansas City Chiefs on February 7, 2021. Here he holds the Lombardi Trophy in Raymond James Stadium in Tampa. In early November, he was rushed to Tampa General Hospital with chest pains and diagnosed with myocarditis, with overwhelming odds it was vaccine-induced.

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 a 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.



It is very likely Arians’ case of myocarditis was due to covid-19 vaccination. Baumeier et al have found the spike protein produced by the covid-19 mRNA or adenoviral vaccines within the heart muscle causing inflammation. The spike protein was the only causative agent in a recent case of Novavax-induced myocarditis reported by Kim et al. Taking Arians at face value that he among the Buc’s staff was fully vaccinated, he was likely to have four or more injections by October, 2022, when he was hospitalized. Because myocarditis is a distinct diagnosis determined by a combination of blood testing, electrocardiogram, echocardiography, and clinched by cardiac MRI, the doctors must have been quite certain that myocarditis was the cause of his findings given the public relations flurry expected with the press release and the existing FDA warnings on covid-19 vaccination.  

Myocarditis rates were understood at 4 cases per million—almost all in young men—due to parvovirus or other causes. With covid vaccination, Mansanguan and LePessec in two studies have established vaccine-induced myocarditis at 25,000 cases per million. So by overwhelming odds Arian has vaccine-induced myocarditis. He must be ashamed, and he has not come out and said it’s due to any other cause—another indicator it’s the vaccine.


NFL: Bruce Arians' retirement doesn't affect Bucs' odds
Tampa Bay Buccaneers Coach Bruce Arians with quarterback Tom Brady, who he recruited away from the New England Patriots to win the 2021 Super Bowl. While the Washington NFL team brought in a Harvard immunologist/specialist to urge players to get vaccinated, Arians said, “I’m the specialist,” and told his team: “If you wanna go back to normal, get vaccinated. . .I don’t see a reason not to be vaccinated.”

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 that 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.” 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.

He is probably not considering the correlation. In the hospital, staff will literally give the opposite input - making sure you’ve been vaccinated because they only think of Covid disease itself being a contributor to cardiac malfunctions. There is zero open discussion of this in most places.

He should know this, living in Florida with the Surgeon General right?
