Hugh Grant has revealed how he became desperate to sniff strangers' armpits after being struck down with coronavirus.

 

The Undoing actor, 60, and his wife Anna Eberstein both contracted the deadly virus in February this year.

 

Hugh said he realised he was suffering badly when he sprayed perfume directly into his face and couldn't smell a thing.

 

A loss of smell and/or taste is one of the key symptoms associated with Covid-19, according to NHS guidelines.

Paydays must have sunken to a new low for this guy. Who in their right mind would advertise a thing like that?

Three top Thai golfers, who contracted COVID in the U.S. this week, Ariya and Moriya Jutanugarn and Kiradech Aphibarnrat, all mentioned the loss of taste and smell.

 

For many, I guess, it returns in 6 - 8 weeks, for others, longer.

I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere in the media, but the loss of smell is also one of the consequences of the common cold.  I learned this a few years back when doing research into treating a cold.  I also figured out at that time why these high-advertised cold remedies (like Nyquil in the U.S.) don't do me well.

 

I saw Tom Hanks being interviewed, he and wife caught Covid early on.  He said he didn't get the lack of smell/taste but his wife did.  Go figure.
