Similar to 1984, there are areas of the country with extreme poverty just like those of the moles(been 3 years since I read the novel forgive me if I mess up the social classes) other ways that relate to the pandemic is that resources are severely limited. Just as is shown in the novel those in the world are forced to ration. Those who are wealthy have more than enough to last them through the pandemic, just like politicians and celebrities have no worry of their supply of resources running out . And the final comparison could be that there is total surveillance in countries over their citizens just like Big Brother. Countries like South Korea doxed their citizens in order to prevent the spread , in a way the citizens in the novel are censored and fed a false narrative
