In the present day situation loss of smell in such a short span has to point to COVID-19. Please get tested.. Even if negative.. Try to isolate for 5 days minimum.. Look for signs of fever or breathlessness. If nothing then it could be due to normal viral flu.. That will recover on its on within a week's time
