It is from a Latin word.  At least Miriam Webster et al. think so:

It could be viri for the plural, if it were a second declension
masculine noun.  Latin already has vir->viri, so it's plural would
probably not be viri.  I was stating that there was no plural for virus
in Latin--at least no plural of which we have record.
