it happened to me but now I can now perceive smell and taste food better, all I did was I went to a pharmacy and bought some drugs which cost me just 100 naira;

1 card of Puritone N50
White Vitamin C N50

Oga make you no worry yourself. Whether you take anything or not, you will recover fully. The loss of taste and or smell is transient, max about 2 weeks and the return is not due to any drug taken.

Please I have loss my sense of smell and taste for more than a week now.... what should I do, what should I take ,those that have towed this part should help me,I don't like this feeling at all

Modified: my sense of taste and smell is back.... what I did is this....I bought lemon , ginger and garlic, boiled it and drink twice a day and also deeply inhale the heat too ,I took 2 white vit C thrice daily too..... I did this for like 3 days and am ok now, before I usually wake up with peppery nose but all that is gone now.

It's Covid but thank God it's the mild form you've got. You will recover and your sense of smell will return within 2 weeks.

The cold season is here again so is the second wave of covid. Immune boasters like VitC and Zinc supplements will come in handy at this time of the year.

Almost everyone in my family and church have lost their sense of smell and taste and recovered recently....which is a symptom of corona virus.

Are we all infected and recovering on our own?
after all there is a 98% recovery rate.

Probably. The true testing rate is abysmally low in African countries. It is highly probable that we have already achieved herd immunity status (>60-70% already infected and recovered) in sub Saharan Africa. I don't know why sub Saharan African countries have mostly asymptomatic infections, but Nigerians never took the Covid 19 isolation rules seriously enough for the infection rates to be this low. Therefore, it is my belief that the real infection rates are far higher than is actually reported, only the virus doesn't affect us Africans the same way. Maybe either because we have stronger bodies, less co morbidities, or due to the natural sterilising sunlight.

I advise everyone (office workers included) to drink ginger and lemon infused tea daily, go out in the sun for a brisk early morning or late evening walk, and if you are diabetic or hypertensive, monitor and control your condition appropriately with prescribed drugs in the meantime. Hopefully, well remain safe.

Have you felt the heat of the sun recently? What kind of coronavirus can survive that degree of heat? The sun is so hot these days your clothes feel hot, your jewelry singes your skin, you drink water like a thirsty camel and sweat it all out in 10 minutes. My friend THAT is the real reason why the symptoms here no shake us.

The Bad news is you got the rona. The good news is that all senses will return with 7 days or less. I experienced the same thing also. Boil ginger, lemon,onions and drink the water. Also inhaling silverbird oil or crystal menthol also helps. You would be fine but also isolate yourself from your loved ones so they don’t catch that rona.

Since you are no more sick, it's not necessary to call NCDC, its a recovery process I guess, the damaged cells in Nose takes time(up to 2 months) to regenerate as I learnt.

Except you are still sick, then you can call
