événement lié au coronavirus
About "événement", see the definition of "cas de force majeure" from the French Civil Code quoted in this article : https://www.avocats-mathias.com/actualites/force-majeure-imp...
The translation with "cas de coronavirus" may be misleading in my opinion, since it also means "coronavirus case".

: Yes, I think it's this--it's broader than just a "case of coronavirus" (person getting sick).

: "cas" is restrictive as it suggests positive cases only instead of covid-related events

You may be right but I think more context would be helpful (as always)

Discussion
I do think that "cas de coronavirus" would rather be interpreted as a "positive case of coronavirus"
Could you please give an example where this term appears?
Thanksss
