It is a type of Cornavirus.
The disease is COVID19
The virus that causes it is SARS-CoV-2
For reference think AIDS is the disease caused by the virus HIV.

The new name of this disease is coronavirus disease 2019, abbreviated as COVID-19. In COVID-19, ‘CO’ stands for ‘corona,’ ‘VI’ for ‘virus,’ and ‘D’ for disease. Formerly, this disease was referred to as “2019 novel coronavirus” or “2019-nCoV”.
