The coronavirus cases in the country are unfortunately seeing a rise. India now ranks at the second position to have the highest coronavirus cases in the world, only after the US. Amid this tense situation, a video of a fruit seller is going viral. The video shows the seller cleaning the fruits with his facemask! The young seller is not wearing a mask but instead using it to clean the fruits. The video raises serious concern about the spread of the virus. It is unclear if the seller has used the same mask but the fact that he has not put a mask on himself makes it worse to believe so.

This young boy, however is seen using the mask for cleaning the supplies. He takes fruits one by one, cleans them with the mask and keeps them back again!
