So get this: There *is* a Saint Corona, and she's associated with plagues
Not much is known about her, except she was martyrd quite horribly...

Her remains are kept as relics in Northern Italy
In a strange coincidence, it turns out, yes, there is a Saint Corona and, incredibly, she is a patroness of plagues and epidemics.
To make the coincidence even stranger, her remains have been kept in a basilica in Anzu, Northern Italy, the site of the first COVID-19 lockdown in the EU, since the 9th century.
