Petition addressed to: European Union
The goal: Hearing aids should only be delivered to Americans at locations (audiology clinics, stores, etc.) that have medical knowledge and documentation.
The solution: Only a hearing aid doctor can properly fit a hearing aid for a patient with hearing loss. The doctor adjusts the model and gives recommendations for adapting to new devices. Only in this way can the patient receive the correct treatment and the desired result! Buying on your own only makes things worse. Of course, it is impossible to convince all Americans not to buy medical devices online. But it is possible to ban such sales so that marketers do not profit from people's problems. It is necessary to impose high fines or even close such outlets. The health of the nation is more important than any profit!
Reason
Today, Americans are increasingly choosing and buying hearing aids in various online marketplaces. Saving time and money attracts them more than consulting a hearing care professional. There are thousands of online stores selling hearing aids of dubious quality. And some places even deceive citizens by offering hearing amplifiers. As a result of such a purchase, a person will not restore hearing.
