A sudden loss of smell or taste could mean you have the coronavirus, even if you have no other symptoms.
Anyone experiencing a sudden loss of smell could be a"hidden carrier" of the coronavirus, even if they have no other symptoms, according to evidence compiled by leading Rhinologists in the UK.
"In South Korea, where testing has been more widespread, 30% of patients testing positive have had anosmia as their major presenting symptom in otherwise mild cases," President of the British Rhinological Society Professor, Clare Hopkins, and the president of the British Association of Otorhinolaryngology, Professor Nirmal Kumar, said in a joint statement.
"There have been a rapidly growing number of reports of a significant increase in the number of patients presenting with anosmia in the absence of other symptoms," the statement says. Story continuesThe lack of other recognised symptoms in these cases may mean they are unlikely to be tested and isolated, meaning they could be contributing to the rapid spread of the disease around the world.
