Twitch Numbers Are Exploding as People Stay Home — They’re Not the Only One. As more people are staying at home to practice social distancing, Twitch viewership, facebook, twitter and instagram numbers are skyrocketing. We've also seen an extreme increase in traffic on our website and radio broadcast. 

Student-run stations are closing, playing reruns, and exploring ways to broadcast on campuses without students. Broadcasting is changing every day.  Attention AVA Radio Artists: As many of our affiliated college radio stations had to close from Corona Virus campus shut downs, we will not be able to place songs on their stations until the campuses return to normal operation. AVA Live Radio programming will NOT be interrupted and in fact we have doubled our programming including a 24-7 Release radar stream, Daily Jax cast in addition to our Behind The Music interview segments.

Hospitals are already overwhelmed and unable to handle what’s ahead. On Average 1 infected person can spread the virus to 144 people which is why self quarantine and social distancing was crucial in getting ahead of the virus.
