Which policies in particular do they find 1984-esque?

Also I'm not sure where 99.97% is coming from, I'm getting ~98.3% from the CDC's Data Tracker page. Of course unreported cases could increase that, but it still seems significantly different from whatever source that's from.

The actual CDC best estimate is a 99.4% survival rate overall in the US since the pandemic started.

Of course the survival rate is much higher than that now for vaccinated people.
