The smell / taste and weakness will take some time to resolve
May take upto a month at times even more
Next Steps
No need to do any treatment perse
Just focus of having a good healthy diet with plenty of fluids
Do not decrease your food intake just because you cant taste it
Infact use this time to work on the nutrition and developing good eating habits rather than just eating for taste
Health Tips
Wait till you have completed your recovery
2 weeks after that you can get vaccination done
