there was no virus, but a jab
There was some weird cold going around during that time, I had it and still can't smell certain things.
On a different note, my sense of smell for hydrocarbons changed so much that I can smell the difference in burns between an old hit and miss engine and a modern gasoline engine.
as your body ages it goes through cold differently, and eventually (if nothing else gets you) it will kill you.
