No Taste When Eating And Using A Walker.
A myCOVIDteam Member asked a question 💭

I am recently out of the hospital after 3 week of covid, I have no taste, I only eat because I know I have to, how long is this going to last, just the thought of eating makes me gag. Plus I am using a walker as my leg muscles lost their strength, I am coming along, but was wondering if anyone knew about how long it will take? And did covid cause intestinal problems? Thank you for any help.

Does Covid Increase Your Chances Of Getting Cataracts And Skin Cancer?
A myCOVIDteam Member asked a question 💭

I have read conflicting reports on this and am wondering because no one in my family ever had cataracts and now I do and I have also recently had squamous cell carcinoma.
