Well, this is where we have to apply biblical history to what we see in our world.
The Bible tells us God created a perfect world, which was marred by sin.
Well, as scientists have been studying viruses, they’ve discovered that many aren’t harmful—they actually do good things. This is a reflection of God’s original creation where everything—including viruses—was “very good.”
But because of the fall, some viruses now cause disease. Now, God didn’t originally create them that way—but it is a result of sin entering into the creation.
