I think that is a misinterpretation. Gram positive and negative refer
to bacteria, whether they can be stained or not and thus seen easily
with a light microscope. Viruses are too small to be seen with a
microscope. You cannot stain a virus, any virus, period.

Sorry Teri, I found an article which states this Coronavirus *IS* gram
negative. Yes, I know, there are a million articles rabbiting on
about Corona, the Internet is full or crap, but going deeper I
actually found one such article stating its negative.
A Jean-Louis Vincent, M.D., Ph.D., at Erasme Hospital states it in an
article I found. God knows who or where he hails from?
Quote: "So far, it seems to be Gram-negative than Gram-positive
organisms in patients with COVID-19" end quote.
Have I misunderstood that?

This is a virus. It is bacteria that is either gram positive or gram
negative
