Death Inevitable since 2 Billion Years Ago
The most important words relevant to the current situation is as follows:
23 And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.
25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?
We may say: for what is a man advantaged, if he gains the corona-virus, and lose himself, since whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whoever will lose his life for Christ Jesus sake, the same shall save it.
The corona-viruses get into human cells, multiply themselves there, and get out of the cells, destroying the cells. Indeed, the viruses are like evil spirit sent by Satan.
Evil spirit gets into a human mind, multiply itself there, and get out of the mind, destroying the mind and eventually the man himself.
So then, how should we suppress and destroy the evil spirit? What are medicines and vaccines against the evil spirit? Or how would Christ Jesus heal and save people from the evil spirit?
By reading the Bible and believing in the words of Christ Jesus, resistivity against evil spirit will be strengthened. Power of the words of Christ Jesus would be multiplied in our mind and work to conquer invading evil spirit like a vaccine against viruses.
By the way, each of our cells has mitochondria that were independent bacteria-like unicellular organism outside our cells. But, about 2 billion years ago, our cells and mitochondria were unified. Then our cells boosted their capacity to produce energy as the mitochondria system using oxygen could produce energy 16 times more than that produced by their intrinsic glycolytic system that does not use oxygen. But as our original cells are of the anaerobic system, it took some time for the unified cell became stable. And, about a billion years ago, multicellular structure was made possible and evolution of organisms started.
Our cells before unification, which are called procaryotic organisms, with mitochondria were all unicellular cells and did not split. They could live forever by splitting themselves, although they could be killed by some outer factors. A cell including mitochondria inside, which is called eukaryotic organism, does not spit forever but undergoes cell division and after certain times of division it stops division, causing aging of our bodies.
In other words, procaryotic organisms chose to take in mitochondria, get more energy sources, enable multicellularity, and further evolve one to two billion year sago, but in exchange accepted aging and natural death due to active oxygen.
Indeed, oxygen to be consumed by mitochondria accounts for 90% of in-haled oxygen. And the ratio of oxygen that turn to active oxygen through activities of mitochondria is 0.1 to 2%. This active oxygen harms mitochondria themselves and other elements in a cell, causing cancer and aging.
Contrary to viruses that invade and destroy our cells for their multiplication, mitochondria integrated into our cells 2 billion years ago when our original cells were procaryotic organisms give energy for our existence but made death of the body inevitable.
Yet, the words of Christ Jesus would invade our minds to give eternal life. But we have to abandon our desire linked with Satan for integration with the spirit of Christ Jesus. In this context, we should not be afraid of death of our bodies as it is biologically inevitable since 2 billion years ago. But, we only have to accept the words of Christ Jesus to get eternal life.

John 6 King James Version (KJV)
27 Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.
28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?
29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.
30 They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work?
31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.
32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.
