How to get rid of a virus on my iPhone
Hi, I have a question about getting a virus or a hack on my phone off, because I went on a site and it added events on my calendar with links and I don't know how to get rid of.

If running iOS 13 or earlier versions, check: Settings - Passwords & Accounts - Accounts - Any rogue entries here? If so, delete the rogue account.
If running iOS 14, check: Settings - Calendar - Accounts - Any rogue entries here? If so, delete the rogue account.
The Apple support article is below.

I would if it made sense.. I’m running iOS 14 and when I go to my calendar in settings this is what shows up
sorry, but what do you mean by rogue entries?
Entries that you did not add and/or do not recognize.
Rogue = a calendar entry that you did not knowingly install. They could appear as “subscribed”.
My cell says o have a possibility virus and my calendar sent me the message. What do I do

You follow the instructions posted above.
I’m having the exact same issue. But I do not have any rogue entries or calendars that I did not put myself. Now what do I do
If you are seeing entries saying anything about having a virus, you do, or one of the calendars you added has been compromised.
See replies above.
Yes, follow the steps given by Stedman1 in the post above marked Apple Recommended.
Check “Subscribed Calendars”.
