Mr. President: Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, I have a better idea.   In Denmark, everyone is guaranteed health care, college education is free, parents receive 1-year of paid paternity leave & workers don’t make less than $22 an hour.  Let's steal those ideas.

Tab af lugtesansen koster på livskvaliteten - især bliver nydelse af mad og lysten til madlavning ofte reduceret. Derfor har vi ved Klinik for Lugte- og Smagsforstyrrelser etableret gratis kokkeskoler for patienter med lugtetab med Rasmus Bredahl og Christian Bøjlund.

Forsøgsdeltagere med lugtetab søges fortsat i København i uge 43. I forbindelse med vores kokkeskoleprojekt for patienter med lugtetab laver vi i samarbejde med KU en undersøgelse af hvilke smagsforstærkere der forbedrer madoplevelsen. Kontakt Helene på [email protected]

Mistet lugtesans er et tydeligt symptom på #COVID19 - faktisk så tydeligt, at du skal betragte dig selv som smittet, indtil det modsatte er bevist, lyder det oven på to nye studier fra @AFjaeldstad ved @HedoniaResearch / @AarhusUni bit.ly/35TptnG #corona #dksund #dkvid
