Nose and throat study reveals why people with COVID-19 lose sense of smell

Researchers studying tissue removed from patients' noses during surgery believe they may have discovered the reason why so many people with COVID-19 lose their sense of smell, even when they have no other symptoms. The researchers say their findings, published in the European Respiratory Journal (ERJ), offer clues as to why COVID-19 is so infectious and suggest that targeting this part of the body could potentially offer more effective treatments.
