The purification has begun but not as desired by the Father. Instead, men inspired by Satan have unleashed a scourge (the virus), distracting the whole world, making it difficult to preach the gospel while reducing the power of prayer-filled assemblies and gatherings at Marian shrines. (How weak and fragile is the Church!)
The Woman must respond quickly and sharply, piercing the clouds, increasing her light, and multiplying her messengers and, after completing these preparations, beginning to act. The virus moves up her timetable.
