More FauciIdiot ‘unintended consequences.... /s
I can vouch for this.
My tinnitus is bad enough that I’ve learned to read lips.
Impossible with masks.
Gee, didn’t see that coming.
Apparently, when my wife is talking, 76% of the time I miss vital information too.
Well, DUH!!!!!
This makes democrats happy.
Very accurate.
Between my lousy hearing, idiotic plastic shields, and people mumbling through face diapers, I just about gave up on talking.
Even with hearing aids in, still sounded like people were talking with a pillow on their mouth.
Those virtue-signaling masks’ ear loops play hell with my hearing aids. My younger son’s mom-in-law sewed me up a three-layer mask with ties. It is every bit as useful as the China-made abominations given out at med facilities.
Wonderful. Nothing like hurting the already ostracized.
Another good reason not to wear a mask. No reason they couldn’t have made “clear masks”. I believe the story is false in many ways.
I wear hearing aids. I can’t tell you how often I would say to store clerks that I could not understand them and could they speak up. It got really annoying for many of them
Good.
Masks are:
1) a sign of submission, subversion and subjugation
2) mandated in order to dehumanize
3) virtue signaling devices
4) meant to provide constant reinforcement of fear
5) used to destroy community, friends and family normal communication
6) implemented to create isolation, confusion, anxiety, destroy human connectivity, trust and interactions
7) mandated to exacerbate illness
8) intended to aid in the abandonment of the belief and reliance on our immune systems
9) intended to refute integrous science
10) signal to positions of power that you are willing to give up all of your rights and freedoms based on anything they say, even if it is a BIG FAT LIE!
Who cares? Certainly not the Democrat/Communists who look at this as a small price to pay to turn America into a nation of government-dependent, irrationally frightened, cowardly hypochondriacs ... many of who are still walking around in that pitiful, depressed condition.
Don’t have to tell ME about it! Was a serious problem. If a person would not drop the mask so I could lip-read, I had to hand them a notepad and pen.
I’m very hard of hearing, not deaf, just heard of hearing. I’ve not encountered too many difficulties, I just say, repeatedly if necessary, “I can’t hear you, please remove the mask.”
My poor Aunt Peggy (deaf since her early 20s) spent the last two years of her nursing home life living in mask hell. English, in her late 90s, and sharp as a tack until the masks went on. My nieces appealed to multiple U.K. government agencies with zero relief... “Sorry about your Mum” was the best they got. Her kids couldn’t see her in person, and her low IQ immigrant “caretakers” had no patience and zero understanding of her condition.
This masking was a problem for hard-of-hearing for me as well. very much so. And the faster another talks, skipping over full enunciation of words, the worse it gets.
Wow! I testify that this article is the truth. I have diminished hearing and masks worn by other was a major block in communication.
Masks made it hard for deaf people to communicate? Sorry to hear it.
More importantly, masks made it hard for tens of millions of children to communicate.
