Covid associated hairfall is very common now. This is called telogen effluvium. Incorporate vitamins and protein rich diet in routine . You can take hair supplements also. Keep a check on your vitamin D, iron and vitamin B12 levels. Moreover do not worry about the hair loss.. eventually these hairs will grow back.
Next Steps
improve diet
