How do I know if my iPad is infected with a virus?
iPad Air 2, iPadOS 14
when I was reading an article online I pressed a continue tab and pages started opening up and there was a recorded voice saying that I have been infected with a virus. It was rather alarming and seemed urgent.

You got lied to by an advertiser on the internet.
Calling telephone numbers can be faked, sending email addresses can be faked, auction sites can offer lost or stolen (and thus useless) products, etc.

There is no virus that can infect your iPad.
Why do you think you might have one?
Thanks! I’m relieved to know it was not serious.
Scam. Site you were reading has been compromised.
Urgency is part of the scam to get you to act without thinking.
