According to Belgian and French researchers, patients who lose their sense of smell have the mildest forms of the disease caused by the new coronavirus.
What has always plagued COVID-19 doctors has been the inflammation caused by the virus in the body, from fluid-filled lungs to kawasaki syndrome, when after infection, the body enters a state of inflammation widespread, extremely dangerous.
When patients lose their sense of smell, ENT doctors know that their nasal passages are inflamed. Hence the two good news: For one thing, instead of wreaking havoc on the lungs or heart, the virus only affects the nose.
The nasal passages, once inflamed by the body’s immune system, stop the infection with the new coronavirus, and therefore a smaller amount of virus enters the blood, which does not spread to other organs.
How did doctors find that loss of smell was a good sign? After dividing 1,300 COVID19 patients into three categories: those with mild form of the disease, those with moderate cases, and those with really severe cases.
Surprisingly, 70-85% of patients with mild and moderate forms had lost their sense of smell, while only 10-15% of those in serious condition reported that they could no longer smell.
85% of COVID19 patients who lost their sense of smell regained it within three months.
