Critical Virus Alert - is this Apple's message? This keeps popping up (screenshot image below) in the upper right corner even though I scanned for Malware using the Malware app and it says I have no malware. Can someone please advise? Thank you in advance.

It’s a scam. Close the page and move on.

These are fake. Don’t click on anything especially not calendar subscriptions that might pop up or you calendar will be full of spam.
