seizure auras are (at least stereotypically) a foul burning/rubbery smell, i.e. dysosmia, and is fairly acute in time course...
vs. gradual loss of smell sensation would suggest some neurodegenerative process. Of which one could argue schizophrenia is. And shares some biochemistry w/ Parkinson's.
I wouldn't go so far to say there's a link between PD and COVID...but it bears at least keeping an eye on, from an epidemiological standpoint.
