[QUOTE="Hangfire, post: 3389706, member: 27673"] I need and have hearing aids (thank you VA) but normally only wear them around the house in the evenings to catch the evening news or watch the rare movie that appeals to me because if I don't mama complains that the tv is too loud. Monday morning I noticed that I couldn't understand the pre-op nurse and I kept saying, Huh ? then I noticed it again yesterday morning when I went for my yearly heart checkup and again I kept saying, What ?, Huh ? It's true that masks do muffle / distort speech and for those like me that are already hard of hearing it's especially noticeable. Now that mask wearing is the new norm here it looks like I'm going to have to start wearing my hearing aids more often when I'm out and about which I probably should have been doing from the git go.
