You might have a future as a mortician or performing autopsies.

Yeesh. Zero interest in gaining natural immunity if that's the case

fattycoug

It can still happen if you get vaccinated

Same.

deliciousmocha

10/22/21 5:42pm

dchandle15

Some would say I never had any taste.

EtTuKalante

10/22/21 5:22pm

Week for me. Wife has permanent changes with taste.

These responses alone are enough justification for why I got the vaccine.

dryflycoug

This is a compelling reason to get vaccinated. Even if one is confident of

Delta variant isn't bringing loss of taste and smell like the original variants.

EtTuKalante

10/22/21 5:39pm

A silver lining. Good to know.

Cougar Junkie

10/22/21 6:11pm

Still having tons of people complaining of loss of taste/smell now. Maybe its

There are a lot of degrees between zero and 100. I'm just passing what I've read

EtTuKalante

10/22/21 7:31pm

I just know what I've seen in clinic. Most of the people I see that have

10/22/21 8:05pm

A little bit of hope never hurts. I tried to offer some. My bad.

EtTuKalante

10/22/21 8:15pm

Thanks for sharing what you're seeing. Even if the loss of smell is less common

Cougar Junkie

10/22/21 8:23pm

I talked to 6 people today with positive covid results. 4 of those had loss of

Folks talking about potential vaccine side effects should consider that...

Never diagnosed with Covid or had bad symptoms but going on 6 months no smell.

tevye

Chefcurry

10/22/21 5:40pm

m0resn0w

10/22/21 5:41pm

PoolBoy

10/22/21 5:49pm

This might be just what the anti-vaxxers need to make them see reason.

Zaphod

10/22/21 5:53pm

Except I am vaccinated and this is still happening to me. I only felt super ill

Duke Silver

10/22/21 6:26pm

Sorry. That sucks.

BenTheBoss

dchandle15

10/22/21 6:26pm

At four months it gradually started coming back. By six months I think I was at 90%. Several months later I’m still...

Brisco

10/22/21 6:26pm

8 months and it finally came back, but not everything is the same

Joe
