I've lost my sense of smell every time I've ever had a head cold. It's pretty normal if you have sinus issues but can easily be a symptom of anything that affects the sinus.
And the test isn't even for covid. It's for remnants of coronavirus family antibodies. That could mean anything. There are lots of coronavirus. The common cold is one. The cdc even tells you this on their website.
As for deaths. I don't know a single person that has died in "the biggest pandemic since the Spanish flu."
Things associated with COVID-19 are exaggerated. Someone got shot 3 times and died of COVID-19. That's how they racked up the numbers. The lock downs were intentional destruction done by evil people. There still seems to be something new out there, because I lost my sense of smell and so did my brother. I had never heard of such a thing before, and it happens with absolutely no sinus issues of any kind. There also seems to be a virus that affects people drastically differently from doing barely anything such as with me and my brother to putting people in the hospital where they need a ventilator. I did know someone whose death was attributed to COVID-19 and my mom knew someone. Both of them were old people, and I have no idea what kind of health problems they had.
Losing the sense of smell isn't new.
Losing the sense of smell seems to have gone from uncommon to relatively common. This suggests something changed, and there is something new out there. I had never heard of it, because it was uncommon. It had never happened to me before with any sickness.
