Our oldest son lost his sense of smell and taste along with a phlegmy cough today. His wife was diagnosed with Covid about a week ago and she is getting better from loss of smell, taste, a cough and general malaise at home. Her son lives with them and he's 28, has a bad liver from drinking and weighs over 300 lbs. If he gets it, and it's pretty certain he will as he's in the household, I hope the strain they have is the mild one. my other DIL's niece and her boyfriend are throwing lost of taste and smell symptoms as well.
