1: There is no virus. All the calendar messages are scams.

2: The “future attacks” can be prevented by not accepting offers from websites to “Send Notifications” or other freebies.

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.
