Alec Hogg engages in a dynamic discussion with Professor Ian Vlok, neuroscientist and neurosurgeon at Tygerberg Hospital, who introduces us to Quintin - 'the robot' with the potential to decrease the risk for medical practitioners while increasing their virtual presence with patients during the Covid crisis. Professor Vlok furthermore believes that the lockdown has granted the medical professionals at Tygerberg Hospital with time which they have utilised in order to be as prepared as they can be for the anticipated tidal wave of Covid-19 infections to come. - Nadya Swart
