Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Loss of sense of smell and taste has been anecdotally reported during the covid-19 epidemic. The study investigators wanted to describe the prevalence of olfactory and gustatory dysfunction and assess the factors associated with positive SARS-CoV-2 infection.
