Getting "MICROSOFT SUGGESTIONS" in my Outlook Calendar that appear to be spam

For the past couple of weeks I have been receiving "Microsoft Suggestions" in my calendar that span across two weeks in my calendar, that are waiting for me to accept. This actually started on my Outlook on my iPhone on my "Outlook Calendar" and has now started on my Desktop Windows machine.

My iPhone Calendar

 and my Desktop Outlook Calendar

in the iPhone calendar, you can see that almost every day has been infested with these. The Pfizer Vaccine ones do not show the "Microsoft Suggestion" but I assume these are all coming from the same place since they started at the same time and there are 4 listed spanning as one "Event" from March 5th to March 30 I can not delete these OR decline them. The Desktop "Meetings" I can decline but they keep coming back.

Has anyone else been getting these BS items and how can I turn them off completely. I do not share my calendar with anyone nor have I ever received "request" for a meeting until this **** started. I am ok with turning off all invitations for meetings but I cant find a way to do this.

Thank you in advance!

Bob

    I have been having this problem on my iPhone using the iPhone client, but when I go to Outlook.com, the spam meetings are not there.  It seems Microsoft is successfully supressing them on Outlook.com but other e-mail clients syncing with Outlook.oom are still picking up these suggestions.

    Did you miss the events that you had on the calendar? Apparently  my calendar was erased and only the notifications of these viruses remained.

    I am also having the EXACT same problem and there are no emails for which these are originating from. This started on March 23rd and has an all day built in so that it's running continuously through April 30th with multiple calendar invites for each day. This is such an annoyance.
