Post-Covid: 'Everything tastes like poo and rotten eggs'

Prof Philpott, a rhinologist and olfactologist at the university's medical school in Norwich, said he had begun to see teenage patients with parosmia for the first time in his career.

Since coming down with Covid in September, Malisse Kafi, 11, found it difficult to eat or drink because everything tastes "like poo and rotten eggs". Malisse now has safe foods including salmon and Dairylea, but he was "extremely tired and cold all the time," his mother said, and had on-going health issues., a charity for people affected by smell and taste disorders, said it had heard anecdotal evidence that children were really struggling with their food after Covid.
