Excellent Bible verse -- very apt for these times.

Ephesians 6:12

For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

Of course I don’t and I didn’t deny his account. It’s just not usually the case that people catch such diseases so mundanely.
