Throw it out and be glad you can taste. I've never had covid, but my son described gagging on a glass of water, because it was cold and wet with absolutely no taste.

Yikes! That sounds wretched

It is weird that water taste changes. It becomes just a wet cold in the mouth. But nothing gag inducing.

I can still taste but it's altered. It's heartbreaking.

When i had covid everything tasted nauseately sweet. Water? Sweet. Steak? Sweet. Hotsauce? Sweet. Grilled cheese? Sweet. Desert or usually sweet treat? Hell no, would gag and physically could not eat it it was so sweet (same for most foods, was just 4x worse with actually sweet stuff)
Really the only thing i could eat or drink was milk, somehow that didn’t change much taste wise. I drank soooo much milk

Yikes. With my lactose intolerance, I'm glad I haven't gotten covid.

This is all water

Water has taste. Drinking water, anyway. Get yourself some distilled water and then tell me water meant to be drunk doesn't have taste.

Perhaps, but not to me. What was described above is me: gagging on a glass of water because it's too plain. I just can't drink plain water.
