Corona - why do all the mild cases have loss of taste?

This is some weird shit, I've been reading personal accounts of illness.

Virtually every single one that has "loss of taste/small" also happens to recover in a week, or even never experience other symptoms at all.

When you look at the worst cases, the prolonged ones that last for months, they never report loss of taste.

Why is this symptom virtually 100% correlated with mild cases?
