Prevent Noise Induced Hearing Loss this Independence Day

The Fourth of July is a one-of-a-kind celebration that all Americans can enjoy!

The day is marked by parades, cookouts, swimming, and outdoor fun.

How loud can the festivities get?

• Fireworks: 140 Decibels
• Fire Truck Sirens: 123 Decibels
• Marching Band: 100 Decibels

Noise induced hearing loss can occur over time or immediately depending on the sound’s volume. Listening to sounds at 95 decibels for about 15 minutes can cause hearing loss, and sounds louder than 120 decibels can cause pain and injury to the ear immediately.
