How does Carolyn Scott's perspective on hearing protection align with CDC guidelines?

From my perspective, hearing protection is part of overall healthy, sustainable living:

1. Avoid or minimize loud noise (workplaces, concerts, planes)
2. Use earplugs/headphones wisely and keep volumes down
3. Get regular hearing checkups
4. Be mindful of medications and infections that can affect ears

This aligns closely with CDC hearing health guidance, which emphasizes: limiting exposure to sounds over about 85 dB, using hearing protection around loud noise, turning down personal listening devices, and getting hearing tested regularly.

Is there a specific CDC recommendation you’re comparing this to (workplace noise, headphones, aging, or travel)?
