What are these on my tomatillo leaves? Should I remove them?

Are they some sort of of butterfly eggs? It's my first time growing tomatillo and I've never seen these before.

I'm kinda sure this is DsMV now, what should I do ? One of my plants gave this leaf from its offshoot. I have 10 plants in containers , all from the same packet of corms. Many of them are showing now a light speckling here and there too. what should I do?

btw ,I am growing it to eat ( leaves and roots) , so is it still edible? If so ,can I harvest the leaves and corm prematurely before the virus spreads more , or do I have to throw away all the plants. The plants are just 2 months old , but have gotten 2 foot big leaves already. now some of the newer leaves are decreasing in size gradually.

Also, will this spread to my Anthuriums and other Aroids too indoors?

Watering: Everyday, they stay in standing water and a filled tray

Sun: 3 to 4 hours of direct sun

I have 10 containers of taro plants. Only one of them is showing this yellowing. The yellowing is progressively spreading to the mature leaves of that plant too.

Sun: 4 to 5 hours of direct sunlight everyday .( though half the days are quite cloudy)

Watering: once everyday. I water until the pot start to drain out and collect into the plate underneath which stays always filled with water.

Fertilizing: 20-10-10 water diluted fertilizer every week once.

Ps: I am growing all the taro leaves to eat and not for ornamental purposes
