The Covid-19 pandemic has brought on an "emerging public health concern" of people losing their sense of smell, according to new research published Thursday.
The research published in JAMA Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery estimated that between 700,000 and 1.6 million people in the US who had Covid-19 have lost or had a change in their sense of smell that has lasted for more than 6 months. This is likely an underestimate, the authors from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis said.
