Hey I’ve never had Covid, but suddenly have flu like symptoms and cannot taste or smell a damn thing. Should I take a Covid test?

Note: The Omicron (BA) strains from early 2022 were identified as coming from some unidentified rodent (non rat) animal in 2022. Possibly the four stripe mouse.

It was originally from humans to them.

With BA.3.2 that pandemic continues to seed new immune evading variants in humans and is still not generally recognized as being a repeating zoonosis pandemic between them and us.

That sounds interesting -- where can I read more about the jump from rodents to humans?
