New pill helps COVID smell and taste loss fade quickly

New clinical-trial data suggest that an antiviral pill called ensitrelvir shortens the duration of two unpleasant symptoms of COVID-19: loss of smell and taste. The medication is among the first to alleviate these effects and, unlike other COVID-19 treatments, is not reserved only for people at high risk of severe illness.

That's another claim begging for a source evidence, btw
Like the source linked above?
The one that says nothing about the virus living dormant like shingles?
Just a comparison with other viruses that have the same ability.

Ah. So the article that - after mentioning all the other scary stuff like ebola and HIV - concluded with 10 paragraphs basically saying how sars-cov-2 is quite dissimilar to them? How most other coronavirus infections are short-lived?
Or, "Covid-19 long-haulers are probably not dealing with the virus for months on end. Rather, .. that the immune system is trying to repair the damage".
The one that ends with the quote that, for the majority of people, "It gets in, it gets out”?
