Loss of smell in COVID time

"Cycle of informative talks In search of health".

Loss of smell has affected 7 out of 10 people who have suffered COVID-19, with a predominance in women and young people. Most have recovered quickly and spontaneously, but almost 1 in 3 has suffered chronic alterations. No treatment has demonstrated clinical efficacy. Only olfactory training, carried out daily and for a long period of time, has shown efficacy in their recovery.
