Tracking reduced sense of smell during the coronavirus pandemic using search trends	2020-07-16		.txt	text/plain	3644	210	60	We used Google Trends to analyze regional searches relating to loss of smell and taste across Italy, Spain, France, Brazil, and the United States of America and determined the association with reported Covid-19 cases. We used Google Trends to analyze regional searches relating to loss of smell and taste across Italy, Spain, France, Brazil, and the United States of America (USA) and determined the association with reported Covid-19 cases using a self-developed software programme (Python). Summary of Spearman's rank correlation test outcomes for search interest in terms relating to anosmia and ageusia and new daily Covid-19 cases per million (both data as 7-day moving-mean) the table shows counts of regions within each country and result group. We have demonstrated that there is clear association between Google Trends search terms relating to loss of smell and taste and Covid-19 cases both on a regional, national, and international basis.	./cache/cord-351108-wfik975q.txt	./txt/cord-351108-wfik975q.txt
