One of the main differences between influenza (flu) and coronavirus (Covid) is the loss of taste and smell. If you are losing your sense of taste/smell, you may have Covid instead of the flu. Self Isolate, get plenty of rest and fluids. Treat symptoms with over the counter meds such as nasal decongestants, cough medications and fever reducers. Get tested so you know if you have covid.

Yes, you should get tested as you are able. Test results are pretty quick with the new testing kits.
