Change in the sense of smell and taste is common in patients with Covid-19, with more than 40 per cent of people on average reporting these symptoms globally. At 30 days after initial infection, only 74 per cent of patients reported smell recovery and 79 per cent of patients reported taste recovery. Women were less likely to recover their sense of smell and taste than men, while patients with greater initial severity of smell loss and those with nasal congestion were less likely to recover their sense of smell.
This is a common enough post viral symptom. It is not just associated with covid 19
