(WQOW) - Not only is the coronavirus causing great concern in the medical industry but apparently it is becoming bad news for the beer industry too.

Well, at least for one brand.

The group 5W Public Relations, a top 15 independently owned PR firm, asked 737 American beer drinkers if their opinion of Corona beer had changed as a result of the deadly coronavirus.

The survey found 38% of Americans wouldn't buy Corona "under any circumstances" because of the outbreak and another 14% said they wouldn't order a Corona in public.

The survey also showed 16% of American beer drinkers were confused about whether Corona beer is related to the coronavirus.

According to CNN, online searches for "corona beer virus" spiked in early February, but have since declined.
