A coronavirus has nothing to do with Corona beer, but a joke was posted on Twitter by Zach Walsh (and others) on March 4, 2020:
“If you get corona virus twice is it called Dos Equis??”
Dos Equis (Spanish for “two Xs”) is another popular lager brewed in Mexico.
Wikipedia: Corona (beer)
Corona Extra (stylized as Corona. Extra) is a pale lager produced by Cervecería Modelo in Mexico for domestic distribution and export to all other countries besides the United States, and by Constellation Brands in Mexico for export to the United States. The Corona brand is one of the top-selling beers worldwide. Outside Mexico, Corona is commonly served with a wedge of lime or lemon in the neck of the bottle to add tartness and flavour.
Wikipedia: Cervecería Cuauhtémoc Moctezuma
Cervecería Cuauhtémoc Moctezuma (Cervecería Cuauhtémoc Moctezuma / Heineken México) (English: Cuauhtémoc Moctezuma Brewery) is a major brewery based in Monterrey, Nuevo León, Mexico, founded in 1890. It is a subsidiary of Heineken International.

Dos Equis
Dos Equis (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈdos ekis]) is a lager that was originally brewed by a German-born Mexican brewer. The brand was named Siglo XX (“20th century”) to commemorate the arrival of the new century, and the bottles were marked with the Roman numeral for 20 (“XX”), thus “Dos Equis” which is Spanish for “two Xs”.
