I'd give you 3 positive points for a good try and 3 negative points for being unoriginal.
Also, -1 for being offtopic, but we're both guilty of that one.
Silly rabbit

Depends whether you use english plural or latin. Virii appears in alchemy medieval works (written in Medieval Latin) as plural for virus.
An example is "De virii et venenis". A venenum is a toxic substance proven to be fatal. A virus is a toxic substance not yet proven fatal.
Conversely, in classic latin virus was only used - at least in what has been recovered so far - in its singular form but no one can say "virii" is non existing. It would be like someone in the future saying "dude" never existed in English as a word because Fitzgerald, Hemingway, etc, never used it in their works.
