The video showed a senior cardiothoracic registrar named Dr Nqobile Manzini, who studied at the University of Cape Town and was completing her final year at Groote Schuur Hospital. She worked roughly 36-hour shifts.

Because of her busy schedule, she could not see and spend time with her five-year-old son, who lives with his grandmother in KwaZulu-Natal.

The dedicated doctor thought Checkers was interviewing her for an insert about essential workers. However, the retailer flew down her mother, son, and brother in specially branded aeroplanes to bring families together as part of their latest campaign.
