　　Racket, din clamor, noise, whatever you want to call it, unwanted sound is America’s mostwidespread nuisance. But noise is more than just a nuisance. It constitutes a real and presentdanger to people’s health. Day and night, at home, at work, and at play, noise can produceserious physical and psychological stress. No one is immune to this stress. Though we seemto adjust to noise by ignoring it, the ear, in fact, never closes and the body still responds—sometimes with extreme tension, as to a strange sound in the night.

　　The annoyance we feel when faced with noise is the most common outward symptom ofthe stress building up inside us. Indeed, because irritability is so apparent, legislators havemade public annoyance the basis of many noise abatement programs. The more subtle andmore serious health hazards associated with stress caused by noise traditionally have beengiven much less attention. Nevertheless, when we are annoyed or made irritable by noise, weshould consider these symptoms fair warning that other thing may be happening to us, some ofwhich may be damaging to our health.

　　Of many health hazards to noise, hearing loss is the most clearly observable andmeasurable by health professionals. The other hazards are harder to pin down. For many of us,there may be a risk that exposure to the stress of noise increases susceptibility to diseaseand infection. The more susceptible among us may experience noise as a complicating factorin heart problems and other diseases. Noise that causes annoyance and irritability in healthpersons may have serious consequences for these already ill in mind or body.

　　Noise affects us throughout our lives. For example, there are indications of effects on theunborn child when mothers are exposed to industrial and environmental noise. During infancyand childhood, youngsters exposed to high noise levels may have trouble falling asleep andobtaining necessary amounts of rest.

　　Why, then, is there not greater alarm about these dangers? Perhaps it is because the linkbetween noise and many disabilities or diseases has not yet been conclusively demonstrated.Perhaps it is because we tend to dismiss annoyance as a price to pay for living in the modernworld. It may also be because we still think of hearing loss as only an occupational hazard.
