Loss of smell/taste with latest COVID variant?

[Anonymous]

Sorry, pp. Keep testing as it may show up later. I have different issue - I cannot stop eating during my moderate covid case. I also just caught it for the first time. I read that it may affect some nerves regulating appetite and people start eating like crazy, that would be me.

I can’t smell or taste anything and feel so lousy I can’t make myself eat. I’ve lost 6 pounds over the last five days and really just wish I could get over this already. No idea what it is, got both the flu and newest covid booster in September.

Just shoot me. Please!

The covid booster doesn't prevent you from getting covid.
