Are you finding it difficult to eat like @ExGingi?

Theres another symptom I had which I am curious if anyone else experienced. At night my mouth becomes painfully dry to the point that I need to wake up a few times to take a drink. Not getting much sleep as it is but this is definitely very uncomfortable. Anyone else experience something similar and any ideas for alleviating? Thanks.
Yes!
I finished a few bottles of water a night. Thank Gd I only had it real bad for one night.

Happy you're feeling better.

Is it literally 0%?
At one point most things I ate simply just "tasted" like its texture. Unnerving. But I was able to taste spicy all the way in the back of my mouth.

It really is so bizarre. I can taste a little savoriness for about a second after putting food in my mouth, and then all flavor just disappears.
If most of taste comes from smell, how was I able to taste things last night, but couldn't smell at all?

While taste comes from smell, it’s still different in your mouth than from your nose.

its not a question of immunity after you already got it everyone agrees on that (that you have immunity) its how long it lasts is the question (a few months or longer ) i heard him say in an interview today that its definitely good for longer then a few weeks

careful as far as not getting reinfected or infecting others? im trying to weigh whether i could invite my elderly parents  for pesach who have been quarantined all along. im obviously concerned about infecting them, but mayb i shouldnt be
