Not Corona Beer Virus!

The Cozumel Sun News found this gem in The Yucatan Times. BoingBoing discovered that there has been a major spike in searches for “corona beer virus”.

Apparently people are under the impression that coronavirus, has something to do with our Mexican beer brand Corona.

The searches have been prevalent in the United States and Canada. But, there have been searches even in Mexico, where the beer is produced! It is world-wide because Western Europe, Australia, India, Indonesia, Japan, and also New Zealand had searches in the numbers.

The ONLY thing that Corona beer and Coronavirus have in common is the origin of their names.

Cerveza Corona was first brewed in 1925.

In Latin, corōna means ‘crown,’ the same as in Catalan, Spanish, and Italian, among others.

The human coronaviruses was identified in 1965. Coronaviruses were named because of the crown-like spikes on its surface.

It does get worse…

The Daily Beast reports that the conspiracy theory believers at QAnon are suggesting that the best way to protect yourself from coronavirus is by drinking bleach. Yes… you read correctly.
