I believe it could be. I had a meme from a series that I am doing from "The Salami Institute" they are public service announcements. It was about General Solemaini and the next in charge who happened to be General Salami and how it was important not to confuse the 2 people it hit 15000 plus views which is also phenomenal for a politics stream meme.
Well people were calling and saying Solemaini as Salami and on the search engine my meme came up as the 5th page when you typed general salami. So hahaha, yes your case of Corona most probably hit a few more because of this connection.
