#1 Doctors of Audiology have been running commercials on this subject (in my area) to encourage testing. They speak of this subject specifically.

#4 When you lose you sense of taste and smell, it sort of follows that there's some kind of brain housing group connection. But what do I know ?

A plague virus that kills off older and medically ill burdensome humans, reduces mental capabilities and coupled with a Vax that reduces fertility and causes Blood Clot / Heart related death for a certain healthy part of the population.

Do people still doubt it wasn't developed in a lab for a greater reason?

Trailing wife,

Ref: Audiology issues.

My Example.
Hearing aide test taken about 7-8 weeks after my C-19/22 infection. Showed I lost additional hearing starting in the 3,800hz high frequencies, Plus, I now need more DB amplification than just 6 months before the Pre-C19/22 infection.

Plus Side ... is I can actually feel very low audio sounds like our Postal Mail Vehicle 1/2 a block away or feel a car rolling down the street.

My Audiologist said he has seen this in a number C-19/22 post infected people.

#9 TW because they specifically mention need for testing in their info add on radio. This office has at least two Doctors of Audiology at my location. Losing high frequency at 3800 and above is normal for most people. Age related but more common in men but that's because he hears only what he wants to hear. 3,500 inner hair cells and 12,000 outer hair cells at birth but outer are the ones that suffer most damage. When you hear ringing after a loud noise that is damage. I have always felt magnesium helped hair cells. Say the word Thaw and high frequency loss is Th sound whereas aw is low frequency sound. Yes, most will want to fit you with hearing aids for both ears 4000 on up. Use both ears to hear and cup each ear for a 10db increase in hearing for each ear. Lip read works also. A pair might cost 3-11,000 dollars and be good for 3-5 years. I would say you are borderline. It is your own mind that will motivate you. I don't believe you will see much benefit. Use speaker phone as this will aid you for the summation effect. Little things like cell phone ring on TV you may not hear. Rubbing fingers together next to your ear you might not hear (that shows you range of hearing). Pen click sound also.
