After one year, world is still struggled with COVID-19 pandemic. COVID-19 is a strange viral infection which presents in different aspects and nearly can involve every system in human body. Both its direct and indirect effects make people in trouble, even in the presence of good adherence to health precautions. Recently, there is an attention to developing halitosis (bad breath) among infected patients, which could be due to COVID-19 consequences per se.
