Tiktok star Whitney Leavitt, known for posting funny dances and video blogs with her family, is getting mixed responses in her latest video of dancing beside her hospitalized son who is suffering from a respiratory infection.
Parents online have raised concerns regarding the video, calling the infection 'possibly life-altering' and 'nothing to dance about'. The video has since turned private and was followed by an explanation video.

In the video Leavitt (@whitleavitt) gave her son Lee a kiss on the forehead before making a heart sign with her fingers. She then started her TikTok dance. The video screen read:
"Lil lee was taken in cause of low oxygen, he tested positive for RSV, waiting for him to breathe better on his own.”
The video got over 1.6 million views in under 24 hours. While the video is now private, it can still be found on Twitter and other platforms.
Whitney Leavitt's followers responded to it like a regular video; however, people new to the page had other opinions. Many viewers called her out for chasing clout and attention.
