I wonder why our society is very tolerant of nuisances that threaten our very existence. Noise is a silent killer that is fast claiming the lives of many people without making noise about it. Cases of hypertension, insomnia and ear infections are escalated by noise. What this means is that noise pollution has mental illness( the endpoint of insomnia) and stroke are linked to noise pollution. Deafness, temporary and permanent are also consequences of this menace. Why is it that the government is criminally silent about this deadly malady?

Why should a hotel play music at full blast in the middle of the night? Why should record dealers threaten the sanity of anyone who has the misfortune of staying around them? Why would heavy duty vehicles acquire terrorizing horns and use them to harass other road users? Why are these serious issues not given any attention? Action is required urgently, please!
