checks using covid PTs should be parameterized as a list of terms instead of a dataframe

[harriscw]

i.e. check_some_check(AE=ae, covid_terms=c("COVID-19","CORONAVIRUS")) instead of check_some_check(AE=ae, covid_terms=dataframe_with_covid_info)

Hi @harriscw - I am a bit concerned about backwards compatibility with this type of change.

[harriscw]

Yeah its something we can think about but for this I don't think backwards compatibility issues should be a blocker. Expecting a vector of terms is way more intuitive IMO than a dataframe with a variable called REFTERM. Internally at Roche we would update our app of course. And we can make the functions fail gently and informatively if a data frame is provided instead of a vector.
