Prince Charles has still not fully regained his sense of smell and taste after having coronavirus in March.

He made the revelation while visiting staff of the United Kingdom National Health Service staff.

BBC News reports the prince discussed his personal experience with the virus as he met workers at the Gloucestershire Royal Hospital - at a 2m distance.

He was accompanied by his wife, the Duchess of Cornwall, who said the staff had shown "Britain at its best".

It was the couple's first face-to-face public engagement since lockdown began.
