In the article, Geldert shares that Nielsen estimates that sheltering at home could lead to a 60% increase in time spent with media, platforms are seeing average OTT viewing sessions increase nearly 80% since the first week of March, and media consumption spiking between the hours of 12-5 p.m. Whether or not these pandemic-driven shifts will persist after the crisis is over is unknown, but the general trend is likely to continue.
