JVC Media To Air Pandemic Answers

Dr. Fernandez, based in Southampton, NY, is the only US based physician to investigate this outbreak in China and lends incredible insight and knowledge to our listeners. Dr. Rajeev Fernandez can be heard daily with Steve and Leeana Mornings on Party 105.3 (CHR - WPTY Nassau/Suffolk, NY) and on The Shannon Burke Show Wednesdays at 5:30pm on Florida Man Radio (Hot Talk – WDYZ 660AM/105.5 Orlando – WYGC 104.9 Gainesville), and on LI News Radio (WRCN 103.9 Nassau/Suffolk, NY).

“I’m thrilled that our company has been so supportive in allowing us to put a top Infectious Disease expert like Dr. Fernandez on-air every day. It shows JVC wants to ensure the Long Island community served by Party 105.3, which is essentially part of the epicenter of this virus, has as much information as possible,” says WPTY morning host Steve Harper. “There are so many questions that go unanswered about COVID-19 and Dr. Fernandez work to answer them. Dr. Fernandez has answered questions from our listeners that we’ve all thought about including “When will a vaccine be available?” and “Is it safe to touch packages delivered by Amazon and FedEx during the outbreak?”.

“You can’t get clear answers about the ‘Rona’ from the media or government officials, so when we’re able to talk to someone who literally was one of the first to find human to human contact with this virus was possible, it’s a huge benefit for our Florida Man Radio listeners,” Florida Man Radio’s Shannon Burke says referring to Dr. Fernandez’s initial COVID-19 investigation.

JVC Media President and CEO John Caracciolo adds, “When we founded JVC, the goal was to be hyper-local and community focused. Having Dr. Rajeev Fernandez available to our loyal listeners does so much good for the communities we serve. The Doctor is so relatable, likable, and easy to listen to. It’s like a friend giving us the answers to this crazy puzzle called Coronavirus. I’m grateful to Dr. Fernandez and our hard-working JVC family for working together to super-serve our hard-hit communities. It can’t be said enough, we WILL get through this together.”
