No , thats a symptom seen in mild form of covid infection. Rtpcr needed after 4-5 days of onset of symptoms or it may come false negative if done in early stage. Start proper medications

No, it's not a common side effect. However, loss of sense of smell is very subjective sign and it can be hard to differentiate it from something abnormal from normal.   Check out videos on youtube for smell training.
Next Steps
seek a consultation if the problem persists after smell training.
