I've heard that some people are skipping Corona beer right now because they're worried about a link to Coronavirus but I didn't know it was to this extreme.

According to a new study conducted this week by 5W Public Relations, an independently-owned PR agency, 38 percent of beer-drinking Americans would not buy Corona under any circumstances now due to fear of a Coronavirus outbreak. On top of that, 16 percent of beer-drinking Americans were confused about whether Corona beer is related to the coronavirus.
