'Grey's Anatomy' will grapple with coronavirus during its next season, the show's executive producer and showrunner says.
Vernoff, who appeared on the panel alongside"Grey's Anatomy" actors Chandra Wilson and Kevin McKidd, said that the show's writers are conducting research by interviewing actual doctors who are on the frontlines of the pandemic.
She added that the show's writers are"often the first people" doctors talk to about what they're experiencing. After 16 seasons,"Grey’s Anatomy" remains the longest-running medical drama on television. While shooting has been postponed because of the pandemic, Vernoff said she hopes to strike a balance between the gravity of the novel coronavirus and the frequently interchanging personal relationships between the staff at the fictional Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital for its 17th season.
