Comedian Pokwang took to Twitter her frustrations after YouTube vlogger and ex-PBB Housemate Baninay Bautista posted a vlog announcing she is positive from the COVID-19 on Tuesday.
The video was initially titled, “I’AM POSITIVE” but was later renamed to “I TESTED POSITIVE” after being called out by Pokwang.
According to Pokwang, Baninay tested positive on July 21 and tested negative on August 2.
Hoy Baninay wag mong pagkaperahan yang clickbait mo para lang dumami views mo! negative kana diba last aug.2?? july 21 ka nagkasakit tapos aug.2 ok kana negative kana! Aug.16 naglaro ka samin nagpanic kmi kanina dahil di mo sinabi sa vlog mo na late upload nayan! pa trending ka!

Hindi mo alam ang panic na ginawa mo samin Baninay! may anak ako at nanay na 80yrs old! sana sinabi mo agad sa vlog mo na nag negative kana last aug.2 dahil aug.16 nag guest ka sa gameshow! hindi mo alam pakiramdam ng isang ina na sobrang nag aalala sa ganitong pandemic!

Meanwhile, Baninay stated on Twitter that refuses to tolerate discrimination against COVID-19 patients, frontliners, and survivors.
I DO NOT TOLERATE ANY KIND OF DISCRIMINATION TO COVID PATIENTS, FRONTLINERS & EVEN SURVIVORS.
This is one of the main reasons why we delayed the upload of our videos. We waited until everything went well.
Thank you for all the love & prayers, stay safe everyone.

Both Pokwang and Baninay have already resolved the issue privately.
