That's the other thing. My wife's best friend is an E.R. nurse and my wife had a cold. Matter of fact we both did and we both lost our taste and smell for 3 days. Her friend was quick to say via text that it was Covid-19. I think people forget that colds and flus it's common to lose taste and smell for awhile. If it's prolonged for several weeks perhaps it's a zinc deficiency but people do still lose taste and smell it isn't all covid-19. Coronavirus = common cold but people have lost their minds.
