Most of the time it gradually gets better and is not for life. But suggest you see a neurologist.

Many Long COVID programs have special therapy for this condition. Taste and smell sensation may be altered as a result of the infection. Use nasal saline rinses and discuss possible options with your PCP. COVID 19 screening indicated if there is cough, fever, shortness of breath.
