I've actually had the opposite. I have lost my sense of taste for a couple weeks with previous illnesses. With what I'm pretty sure was Covid I had a killer headache on day one and a cough that lasted weeks, but never lost smell or taste.
I say I'm pretty sure it was Covid because the timing, exposure, and symptoms all lines up but I never actually got a positive test result from at home tests.
