‘Thank you to everyone who has reached, my cameraman, @Stmcclune for being there for me, & @NahremanIssaCTV for being an absolute pro (as usual),’
She also said she was subjected to harassment about her illness and had to confirm that it was unrelated to the coronavirus vaccine.
‘To everyone who has reached out with supportive messages of well wishes and concern, thank you. It’s been overwhelming, and while I can’t get to all the messages, please know I’ve seen them and appreciate every single one. I have also received an overwhelming amount of harassment and hatred, tied to false theories about the reason for the incident.’
‘While I will not share private medical information publicly, I can say that there is no cause for concern, and that my understanding of my own medical background provides a reasonable explanation for what happened. I can, however, confirm that the situation was in no way related to the COVID-19 vaccine,’ she concluded.
CTV viewers also wished Robb a speedy recovery and said they hope she feels better from the entire ordeal.
So disturbing. Hope she’s okay

Scary stuff to see CTV Edmonton Jessica Robb have a medical issue on air live. 🙏 for quick recovery and Covid conspiracy wingnuts, stop trying to harass her. Believe what you want but don’t make baseless claims – neither you or I are doctors and it’s none of our business…
