TL;DR: This meta-analysis recommends self-isolation and testing, where possible, for patients complaining smell or taste impairment during COVID-19 pandemic in order to prevent spread of disease and proposes the inclusion of loss of smell and taste as recognized symptoms of SARS-CoV-2 in the World Health Organization and other relevant regulatory body's lists.

TL;DR: Smell or taste impairment are quite common in not-tested household contacts of mildly symptomatic home-isolated SARS-CoV-2-positive patients, and should be taken into account when estimating the burden of loss of sense of smell and taste during COVID-19 pandemic.

TL;DR: Self-reported loss of smell and taste have greater value in controlling disease transmis- sion than psychophysical testing, which is not widely available outside of highly specialized clinics.

TL;DR: There is good evidence supporting the role of beta‐HPV in the oncogenesis of KC and the search for an effective vaccine relevant and worthwhile.
