The corona virus is actually a very common upper respiratory infection in cats. Often there are no symptoms. If there are symptoms it would be a kitty cold rather than diarrhea. In a kitten this young I suspect a parasite or worms. I know you said that he has been checked but it is common for a test to be negative even though he has them. It has to do with the life cycle of the parasites, they can only be found in a test at one part of the life cycle. Has your kitten be dewormed? Many vets routinely deworm young kittens and it is usually with two or three spaced doses. Again that has to do with the life cycle of the parasites.
