DNS redirects (malware but not virus) have largely been mitigated by software updates, so first make sure you have latest OS.

Also

delete all Safari/browser history including caches
Flush DNS ( sudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder)
Make sure you have a secure Wifi connection
Set manual DNS servers (1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 etc)
Check network settings to make sure no proxy, etc
