How COVID-19 Can Attack the Inner Ear

“New research finds that cells in the ear are susceptible to infection with SARS-CoV-2, causing symptoms that include dizziness, ear ringing, and hearing loss.

Experts say that other viruses may also cause hearing loss, and newborns can be especially at risk.”

SARS-CoV-2 infection of the inner ear

SARS-CoV-2 can infect inner ear cells, specifically hair cells and Schwann cells, which are crucial for hearing and balance.

Some COVID-19 patients developed hearing loss, tinnitus, and vertigo, suggesting a link between the virus and these symptoms.
