A Canadian news reporter became faint and appeared to suffer a medical emergency live on air this weekend.<br /><br />Jessica Robb was presenting a segment on CTV's six o'clock news on Sunday when she appeared faint, began repeating her words, and told the host: 'I'm not feeling well.'<br /><br />Her report was cut short and the host in the studio, Nahreman Issa, reassured viewers that Robb was not alone and had support.<br /><br />Hours later both Robb and CTV Edmonton, where Robb works, put out tweets suggesting her recovery was underway, but not long after Robb's tweets were made private. <br /><br />In a statement shared with DailyMail.com on Monday afternoon she said: 'On Sunday night, a very personal and vulnerable moment unfolded as I reported live on air.'<br /><br />Robb began the segment by speaking coherently about how families of victims feel three years on from the downing of Flight PS752 by the Iranian military.<br /><br />'Families are pushing the feds to... pushing the feds to...' she said, as she tripped over her words and stuttered.<br /><br />As she became increasingly faint and seemed to lose her balance, she said: 'Sorry Nahreman. I'm, I'm, I'm not feeling very well right now, and I'm about to just...'<br /><br />She was then interrupted by Issa, who said: 'Okay, we'll come back to you and we'll make sure that Jessica, you are doing okay. Thank you.'<br /><br />In the moments before the camera returned to Issa, Robb began inching forward with a wobble.<br /><br />A few hours later CTV Edmonton said on its official Twitter page: 'Thanks to everyone who inquired about our reporter who became ill during the 6 p.m. News. Jessica Robb is feeling better and is now resting.'<br /><br />At around the same time, Robb posted on her own Twitter saying that she was 'okay.'<br /><br />'Thank you to everyone who has reached out, my cameraman, @Stmcclune for being there for me, & @NahremanIssaCTV for being an absolute pro (as usual),' she said.<br /><br />The anchor's Twitter profile then went private soon after, but it is not clear why.<br /><br />'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,' she said in the statement. <br /><br />She added: 'I have also received an overwhelming amount of harassment and hatred, tied to false theories about the reason for the incident.<br /><br />'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 medical background provides a reasonable explanation for what happened.<br /><br />'I can, however, confirm that the situation was in no way related to the COVID-19 vaccine.' <br /><br />In October last year, a news anchor in Oklahoma also started gargling her words on air as she started to suffer from a stroke.<br /><br />Julie Chin, of Tulsa NBC affiliate KJRH, was delivering a story about NASA's canceled Artemis-I launch when she suddenly found herself unable to speak the words she was reading off her teleprompter.<br /><br />Some days after Chin
