> We can split hairs about what constitutes "long-term" and what doesn't,
Pretty easy to define. Long-term = chronic illness. There are tons of such conditions around. Rheumatoid Arthritis, Psoriasis, or even viral infections with flares that never go away for the lack of good cures. 1 year is nothing.
> too many people still refuse to follow that can spare many people from having to wonder if they will ever be able to smell again (or worse).
What a ridiculous position to have. You also have a simple way to avoid STDs, is to never have sex in your life ever again. If you want to avoid risks at all costs, you don't have a life anymore.
