Psychiatry in the city, a newsletter

My hearing aid only has a range of 1.5 meters.
We currently live in a one-and-a-half meter society. Because of the coronavirus we have to keep 1.5 meters distance from each other. This is often the range of hearing aids to talk to someone. And sometimes even less. Because I want to understand him or her, I automatically move closer. It is quite difficult to keep a distance, because I also want to understand what someone is saying.
Tip: Be aware of the fact that 1.5 distance makes understanding difficult for a hearing impaired person.
The distance between Marja and the end of the hoop is less than one and a half meter.
