Poor sister just lost her taste and smell

She came down with a bug late last week. She has spent 48 hours in bed. Now she lost her smell and taste. She has sent off a PCR test but has to isolate until she gets the results. Her family has to isolate too

She has had two AZ vaccines but hasn’t been offered the booster yet

I hope she doesnt have covid!

I assume she was vaccinated? But I hope she’s going to be ok.

Well, if she’s sick, I hope she has a mild case since she was vaccinated

I’ve been told that some people have to train themselves to re-affirm the smells they used to after a bout of covid knocks out their smell.

If they recover partially they still might have smell problems. So I would recommend looking into that if you want to cheer them up.

Hopefully not covid. I lost my senses of smell and taste for almost a month when I had covid last year.

I can’t imagine senses of taste and smell. Hope she gets better and the family is safe.

I had the jansen shot and covid too.

I lost my smell when I had covid but I gain it back after a few days.
I hope you’re sister gets her smell back as soon as possible.
Otherwise you also have the tik tok solution where people burn oranges and eat them to get the smell back
