CME Credits: 1.00

Released: 2022-08-04

Before the advent of the Omicron variant, smell and taste dysfunction were among the most commonly reported symptoms of mildly symptomatic COVID-19., Moreover, smell and/or taste dysfunction are prevalent symptoms of long-term COVID-19, with 7% of patients being functionally anosmic 1 year after SARS-CoV-2 infection. Given the high case rate of COVID-19, it is important to estimate the long-term persistence of these symptoms. We previously described the prevalence of an altered sense of smell or taste in mildly symptomatic patients at onset, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 6 months after COVID-19.,, The aim of the present study was to estimate the 2-year prevalence and recovery rate of smell or taste dysfunction in the same series of patients.
