War, famine, and plague occur over and over in the Bible, as ways that God uses to get the attention of a nation in need of repentance from their pride and idolatry and violence.
Information on coronavirus is still sparse and unreliable, but it appears that we are entering Round 1. Hopefully, there will be a reprieve during the warmer months, before Round 2 next fall.
Slowing down the spread of the virus, to try to keep the numbers of cases low enough to avoid overwhelming the available medical resources, is a good tactic, but it also means that this is going to take months to get through.
Even when a vaccine becomes available, that may not be much help. Vaccines aren't very effective against viruses that mutate rapidly; coronavirus may be one of them.
