I personally know two people who have reduced or no sense of smell after a year post infection.
- nickysielicki 5y agoI've been infected twice. I can smell, but it's muted relative to how it was previously. It also feels like the spectrum of smells was shifted -- I can smell stuff and identify it fine, but it's not how I remember things smelling before. I've been unable to really put this into words.
- njmartina 5y agoThis is my experience as well. Was infected February 2021 and was totally without smell for around 4 months until it slowly recovered. But like you said it's different now, where certain things smell differently but I can still identify them. Same goes for taste, in particular onions smell and taste almost entirely different than before I got sick.
- dangom 5y agoVery curious. Is there anything that smells the same, or is absolutely everything different? Also, how much of a difference is it - slightly off, or completely new?
