In Anzù, Northern Italy, the hotbed of the coronavirus in Europe, is a basilica where the relics of Saint Victor and Saint Corona are being preserved since the 9th century.
Saint Corona was only fifteen when she professed her Christian Faith during the persecution of the Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius around 165.
Corona was arrested and tied by her feet to the tops of two palm trees which were bent to the ground. When the palms were let loose she was torn apart. According to the Roman Martyrology, this happened in Syria.
Two investigations in 1943 and 1981, proved that the relics belong indeed to a man and a woman. Cedar pollen was found confirming an original burial in Syria and then in Cyprus.
Saint Corona is especially venerated in Austria and Bavaria as the patron-saint of treasure hunters and against epidemics. Her feast day is May 14.

I have seen several places where St Corona is patron saint of treasure hunters but I can’t find where it states that she is patron saint of epidemics or pandemics. Can someone provide that information for me?

At the start I tried to find some text from previous years, confirming info published here, in English laguage- but without success. Then I continued to search in Italian and Spanish language - without success too. But I have found good info in Germany language - info from encyclopedia from 2011: "In Altbayern, Böhmen und Niederösterreich ist die Verehrung seit dem 14. Jahrhundert nachgewiesen, besonders gefördert von den Benediktinern aus Niederaltaich." - "Patronin von Castelfidardo und Osimo; der Schatzgräber und Metzger; gegen Seuchen und Unwetter, für Standhaftigkeit im Glauben; in Geldangelegenheiten, der Lotterie".
