BTW you could use some kind of decoration for the visual representation
of tags e.g. an image of a corona-virus.  This is the idea of
https://melpa.org/#/org-pretty-tags.  You could even use "COVID-19" as
replacement for "COVID19" but possibly this brings too much confusion.


Hopefully not too shameless at plugging,
