That's a fine question that, given the current state of the art in mundane astrology, is very hard to answer.

I wonder. Does anyone have access to the exact time and date of the first report of the first known case of Covid in Wuhan? It might be possible to erect and interpret a chart for that, and use it as -- in effect -- the natal chart of the entire Covid business. It would then be possible to compare that chart to other charts, like the Mars-Uranus-Algol conjunction, to see if they make aspects to the original chart.
