loss of taste and smell.. covid

so my whole family was wiped out with covid, we have all been stuck at home quarantining. this is the first week, going on day 4 i just lost my taste and smell today, it’s hard. i want to have a panic attack i pray for the families going through this. my poor 2 year old son had also caught covid, and my poor baby can’t tell me what’s exactly going on with him, he’s been playing and everything.. it’s like he is stronger then i am 😭😭❤️❤️ please pray for my family, it was been so hard, please wear your masks get your vaccines and if your sick just stay home!!! i see how contagious it is, and just by one person leaving home and being around someone that was sick, then coming back to there family can wipe homes out so quick and it’s so sad, i have never been through this much pain… why would you go out and put so many others at risk, we can’t even go to the grocery store to get necessities, it’s always that one person out there that doesn’t care, so that’s why we stay home.. even staying home you can still get it. how long do the symptoms last for based off experiences
