Summary
About a month after a mild COVID infection with rebound, for which they took two rounds of Paxlovid, Harbor 96382 reported distorted smell: smoke or burning at night, then vomit smells on waking. Taste was salty for a week and returned to normal. Headaches persisted. Similar smell trouble had followed their second vaccine and booster and lasted about a month.
