It's officially been 11 months since I lost my smell and taste. Scent training hasn't helped. What other research is being done? You're right, it's very frustrating and, as the video describes, potentially dangerous.

@gmsouth,
I search for anosmia on the clinical trials database and found that there are 45 studies currently being conducted around the world related to COVID-19 and loss of taste and smell.

This research was published recently
- Clinical Outcomes for Patients With Anosmia 1 Year After COVID-19 Diagnosis https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2781319
- COVID’s toll on smell and taste: what scientists do and don’t know https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-00055-6

For others, can you describe what scent training entails? Are you still doing it?
