How do people become deaf? ?
There are many different ways that people become deaf. Some people are born deaf because it runs in the family. Other people are born deaf without a specific reason. Another way people become deaf is they become sick. For example, spinal meningitis and other viruses cause high fever. When you get a very high fever, it can damage your inner ear. Some people lose their hearing because of accidents. Being around very loud noises can damage your hearing too. Have you noticed many rock stars perform with earmolds in their ears? That’s to protect their hearing! And people also lose their hearing as they get older.
