How much does ignorance of the threat protect or increase the vulnerability of contracting COVID-19? After all, most people (even religious ones) do not believe in spirit attachments, but 90% have them. Do worry and adverse expectations play any role in the likelihood of an individual contracting COVID-19?

To some extent this is very true. What is going on in many cases is there is an inner awareness that the individual has had similar difficulties in the past, and this could include other lifetimes where there has been a vulnerability to disease, often of an infectious origin as these have been rampant all through human history. So everyone has experienced this and, seeing an epidemic in their current life unfolding, will be triggered to have deep inner fear about this. So the two go hand in hand—the awareness of a threat is disquieting, but that in turn will trigger the deep subconscious to review the history of other lifetimes as well to gather information about the situation and it will find many instances of similar calamities, many times resulting in the death of the self or loved ones, and it will transmit that awareness to the conscious self through generating tension, fear, and anxiety because it cannot speak to the conscious mind directly. This stirring of the pot, so to speak, will in turn set in motion the machinery of karma which always looks for opportunities to replay the unfinished drama of past life trauma. When people experience adversity and fail to correct it, this creates a karmic potential to repeat the lesson until it is finally learned through finding a way to deal with it effectively and heal it so it becomes a non-issue, in a sense, allowing the person to graduate as an experienced hand able to handle such matters and take them in stride. There have been few answers in the past for scourges from the microbial world and there is much inner karma and great fear that can be generated by the mind pondering its potential fate. Once the karma is reactivated, in a sense, it will prime the person to be a victim once again of an infectious disease because it will bring back the karmic dilemma for them to work on. Always in the expectation it is providing more learning opportunity and a chance to finally resolve what happened, and leave the problem behind as healed once and for all. But this is small comfort to a person wanting to stay safe from a serious viral pandemic, but may harbor a karmic liability and be in a state of fear. This is a signal that outside help is needed. That is what prayer and spiritual healing are for—a way for people to get help beyond what they can do themselves or through human hands.
