Results and discussion:A total of 14,956 reports of hearing-related adverse events were identified with COVID-19 vaccination and 151 with influenza vaccine during the analytic period in VAERS. The incidence of hearing disorder following COVID-19 vaccination was 6.66 per 100,000. The results of disproportionality analysis revealed that the adverse events of hearing impairment, after administration of COVID-19 vaccine, was significantly highly reported (ROR 2.38, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.20-2.56; PRR: 2.35, χ2 537.58), for both mRNA (ROR 2.37, 95% CI 2.20-2.55; PRR 2.34, χ2 529.75) and virus vector vaccines (ROR 2.50, 95% CI 2.28-2.73; PRR 2.56, χ2 418.57). While the disproportional level for hearing dysfunction was quite lower in influenza vaccine (ROR 0.36, 95% CI 0.30-0.42; PRR 0.36, χ2 172.24).

That is very sad.
I want to share that I have hearing loss in my left ear. Since 6 years ago. I always took care to wear ear pro in the Army and also when drumming, so it's not noise.
I was one of the unlucky ones that was just sitting at work minding my own business when a ROARING BEEP came into my ear out of nowhere and I couldn't understand anything. I ran to my boss' office and said 'hey im going to the DR right now'
They gave me steroids and luckily staved off any further loss. It was a viral infection (supposedly. I have learnt that oto- people don't really know much, it's a lot of guessing)
But ever since then I lack bass in my left ear.
On a good day I hear everything perfectly minus bass frequencies and there is no ringing.
On a bad day it's loud ringing and I can't understand anyone in that ear.
Luckily I don't think it's getting worse, it's just a shame.
I have cried about it plenty of times, being a musician. Now I am resigned to it. Oh it's a good day or oh it's a bad day.
My new doctor found a diet that DOES seem to help. It's largely anti-inflammatory (cured meats, cheeses, booze, salt, chocolate. All the good stuff) .
Even sadder are stories like other musicians or DJ's who are only in their twenties who go to sleep and then wake up totally deaf in one side. I guess cuz they didn't have the time/wherewithall to get to a doctor in time.

I believe in the vaccine injury but there is also another possibility,
Air pod usage has exploded.
I also knew my generation (X) would have to deal with hearing loss from all the gaming, concerts etc.

I know a lot of people who have developed tinnitus since being vaxxt.

I am in Audiology, and have dispensed hearing aids for 27 years...
Usually we see someone have a big drop in their hearing in maybe 2 patients a year. This year I have seen 46 people who have lost and additional ten to as much as 40 percent of their hearing.
When we see these sudden drops, it can usually be related to one of just a handful of potential triggers: Surgery (anesthesia and antibiotics) med change, (the biggest ones are Statin drugs) stupid noise exposure (like going shooting with no ear pro) or major illness, (Staff, MRSA, Pneumonia.) When I am seeing these big drops in hearing, I always ask the patient if any of the above has occurred. Now I have to ask if they have been vaccinated.
None of these people that are experiencing this additional loss of hearing had surgery, serious illness, were stupid with their hearing, or changed meds, but every one of them has been vaxxed and boosted.

Hearing disorder following COVID-19 vaccination: A pharmacovigilance analysis using the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System
