There was a significant difference in the smell\/taste impairment rates of the groups (n = 46% [71.9%] for the COVID\u201019\u2013positive group vs n = 17 [26.6%] for the COVID\u201019\u2013negative group, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> =. 001). For subjects with a smell impairment, anosmia rates did not differ between the groups. The rates of hyposmia and parosmia were significantly high in the COVID\u201019\u2013positive group. For the subjects with taste impairment, ageusia rates did not differ between groups. The rate of hypogeusia and dysgeusia was significantly high in the COVID\u201019\u2013positive group.
