Filmed by an unidentified person, the video, which included the caption "how to spread Wuhan" with a smiley emoji, has sparked anger amid growing concerns of coronavirus cases in Singapore. The supermarket chain said it is taking the matter seriously as the video has sparked unnecessary public alarm, adding that the public should refrain from sharing the video to avoid causing further distress. The person recording the video can be heard asking his friend, a man wearing a white cap, if a drink is "nice or not?". The person wearing the cap was also seen trying out another drink. The portal later reported that the creators of the video had issued a public apology after the video went viral, saying the video was made out of "stupidity" and for their "own pleasure".
