Hopefully you didn't lose your sense of smell / taste as this is a sign of brain damage. Who knows what kind of illness people will start to develop 3-4 years down the line. It won't be pretty.
You got a source for that one?
Not the person you were replying to.

Ah, so specifically people who lost and never regained their smell. Interesting.
Also, it's good to know, as I personally lost my smell both times I've had covid, but thankfully recovered heh...
Thanks!
