Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Share your source, otherwise this is just bullshit. I think it's bullshit.

Edit: I don't doubt the covid part. Maybe that causes weird reactions. It's been described to me as "different", rather than a loss of smell.

Edit 2: Still no source. Downvote all you want, you're still not convincing any scientifically minded individual that you're correct.

You can smell other people's mucous (not recommended). If you ever have been the primary care taker for a baby or small child you'd know what boogers smell like. Old boogers also start to decompose and the smell is faintly different. Sick mucous also smells different and worse. I could tell my nephews were sick with the flu by smelling them from ways away before noticing any other symptom. Sometimes I can smell that in public transport and it makes me figuratively run in the opposite direction of the sick person.
