The one person I know who had covid said they didn't want to eat anything. It wasn't just that you lose taste/smell, it's that everything tasted/smelled funny.

Is it a permanent loss of taste or do your senses come back after?

For some it's come back. More rarely it stays gone for months. Hard to know about 'permanent' since it's only been 6 months this thing has been around.
