Covid induced ED?

Hi! I'm a 21 year old man, relatively healthy. As of yesterday I was diagnosed with Covid.

Before this, I had no issue getting or holding erections. But after my diagnosis, it's like no matter what I do, I cannot get hard. I did some research and found that ED can be a side effect of Covid, but this early on, that fast? Every article talks about how it's generally something that's a result of long covid. I can't find any articles saying if this is permanent, or if this is something that will subside as my symptoms begin to go away, or if this is just a symptom due to Covid and not a form of Covid induced ED. Any help or advice or anything would really be appreciated as I am currently really worried. 21 and having ED doesn't sound fun, especially when I'm fully vaccinated and have the booster shot too.
