Yep. Me and my kids had it. Still no smell , little taste and some other issues over a month out with a mild case- or at least seemed mild / early ivermectin and major symptoms knocked out quickly.. Total bioweapon. Weird.

My optometrist had it, lost taste and smell and only has it back perhaps 10% after 6 months. He said it was very mild, but the thought was it induced a stroke that affected his taste/smell and he will never get it back.

I’m about three months out, smell came back gradually and is now about 80-90 percent of what it was before, but I’ll take it! My daughter lost hers too but only for a few weeks. She has a couple of friends who still can’t smell, or have distorted smell, over a year later. She told me that there are protocols for retraining your neural pathways, I believe she said involving a progression of sniffing certain smells/essential oils in certain order over a period of time that I believe she said amounts to a few weeks, not sure exactly because I was keeping the possibility in mind “just in case”, but eventually mine returned. It’s was so gone at one point that even sticking my nose in a jar of vaporub I couldn’t smell anything at all, just felt the coolness.

Point is though, don’t lose hope, because whether on its own or by retraining,you will get it back!

In a month symptoms will disappear, at least the have for me. It took a good 60 days from cessation of symptoms to feel 100% One thing I did notice though is one eye needs correction. My eyesight got worse in the left eye.
