         (g)          quinidine;
         (h)          quinine and quinine derivatives, including mefloquine; or
         (i)            vancomycin.
                               specified list of haematological diseases means:
         (a)          aplastic anaemia;

Note:               hyperviscosity syndrome is also defined in the Schedule 1 - Dictionary.
                               specified list of viral infections means:
         (a)          coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19);
         (b)          cytomegalovirus infection of the vestibulocochlear nerve of the affected side;
         (c)          human immunodeficiency virus infection;

         (h)          viral labyrinthitis of the affected ear.
        Note: Herpes zoster of the geniculate ganglion is also known as herpes zoster oticus or Ramsay-Hunt syndrome.
                               suppurative labyrinthitis means inflammation of the inner ear characterised by the presence of pus.
                               terminal event means the proximate or ultimate cause of death and includes the following:
         (a)           pneumonia;
         (b)           respiratory failure;
         (c)           cardiac arrest;
         (d)           circulatory failure; or
         (e)           cessation of brain function.
                               time-weighted average (TWA) with a 3-dB exchange rate means the time-weighted average noise exposure level calculated according to the following formulae and shown in the table:

          TWA = 10.0  Log(D/100) + 85
        where D = daily dose; and

        D = [C1/T1 + C2/T2 + …..+ Cn/Tn]  100
        where               Cn = total time of exposure at a specified noise level; and

        Tn = exposure duration for which noise at this level becomes hazardous
