The interviewer is disrespectful of the doctors and medical professionals who are working so hard. This not a game but real life. How dare you blame them for something out of their control. Kudos to the doctor for trying to warn other countries.

The woman interviewer's tone was very annoying and aggressive, no sense of compassion. Did not like it at all.

[JTFII]

i dont like how she criticized italy's response to the virus. its actually a proper response to aggressively contain the spread of the disease


like what does 'behind the 8 ball' even mean?

[roydoorenspleet]

Wish you much strength and success Dr. Giacomo Grasselli.

[Lokos]

I wouldn't want to be in the same room with this woman for even 5 minutes. What an arrogant attitude towards a man who already has so much concern

[larasita]

Let him talk! Stop screaming at him! He'exhausted but he knows what he's talking about!

I am in Chengdu China, we had a curfew 14 million people . We were allowed to go out 3 days a week only . I just spend 40 days in isolation, only went outside my flat 4 times (once every 10 days ) to buy groceries. Dr Grasselli is 100 % correct . I would advice the general public that avoiding crowded places, wear N 9.5 or PM 2.5 respitaros ( mask) at all times when going outside, wash your hands, use hand sanitizer and the most important action is stay home !! Avoid contact with other people and monitor your temperature. I checked my temperature 3 times a day like clock work . So far none of my friends have been infected we are all well!! Do it!!!

Imagine how this woman treats people when there is no camera around...

What an awful interviewer. Wishing all the best to Dr Grasselli, his patients and Italy.

[jorda.]

Why are you yelling at him?
Italians are reacting at least.
What's Canada doing? Waiting for same point of no return?

[anekadrazek]

God Bless U Doctor. Sheesh the interviewer is horrible

[loboalamo]

How rude. Your guest endured YOU as well as loosing the time he could be using for his fight. He graced to let Us, EVERYONE know what we need to know? You are badgering, not listening, you're ready for the next hammer. You interrupt him to deliver the next punch. You just keep swinging.

This reporter is a joke, did she work at the supermarket rags....he's trying to explain and all she wants is sensationalism

[person]

At 1:26 she gets oddly aggressive. Clearly she doesn't realize that Canada has no clue how many cases we have. Wait and see.

I've got to stop watching these interviews. Reporters are getting more and more aggressive and presenting themselves as though they are cops trying to convince these doctors that their country has somehow screwed up. Or when they interview people in isolation they are trying to poke at the viewers emotions and fears "Describe for me the situation the EMOTION!".

Italy has one of the best health systems in the world. If it can overwhelm Italy it can also overwhelm the USA system.

[davidmeijer]

"other European countries"?!?! Really Sue Hannah!?! How smug can you be? Other countries, ALL COUNTRIES, INCLUDING Canada needs to HEED THIS GUYS ADVICE or SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES.

[dadk]

This doctor is lovely and he is spreading an important message.
The " journalist" is verbally assaulting him. So aggressive and pointing fingers!
What has her country done so far??
In many countries, like the Usa, they are BARELY starting to test people!
Did you hear the sad interview on the 32 years old doctor dying in New York of corona???
THIS IS SERIOUS FOLKS!

Anyway, this journalist needs to learn manners, and look at her own backyard!!

[ssPeto]

Consider getting an interviewer who is more informed and far less rude. She was very combative when the Dr gave her information that didn't sit well with her. She seems to think that her little corner of the world is immune from an outbreak.

[Infinity-gqum]

Who the hell is this woman reporting on CBC?! She sounds like she is reprimanding and interrogating the italian doctor. She is out of place.🤮🤮🤮
