Loss of taste and smell is a common symptom of COVID19 acute infection. It tends to return back by second week. It is not a serious problem.
Health Tips
Monitor temperature and oxygen saturation level daily at home. Isolate and take precautions. In case fever/cough/weakness develop, consult online.
