One Year and Six Thousand Covid Articles Later, the Beast Has Readers Like You to Thank
If you’ve relied on our coverage at all in the past year, please continue your support by becoming a Beast Inside member today.
Hi there—It’s been a year. A year of perfecting Zoom setups, of part-timing as teachers, of waving at friends and family from a safe distance. A year of sourdough starter and double masking. It’s been a year—more than a year—of the Daily Beast covering this crisis from all angles. Since the first news of the novel coronavirus, we’ve written over six thousand articles covering all aspects of the pandemic. We put a spotlight on the people using the pandemic for personal profit. We’ve covered conflict among Air BnB hosts, Bigfoot believers, and health officials who think illness is caused by demon sperm. We were there when the first vaccines got FDA approval (was it only three months ago?) and we’re already focused on the other medical breakthroughs these new vaccines could produce.
While we never imagined we’d still be writing about this pandemic a year after we began, we couldn’t have brought any of these stories to light without your support. In fact, your support meant we could keep must-know coronavirus coverage free to all readers when it was most critical. Your support has kept our reporters hounding sources and breaking news, ensuring everyone has up-to-date information about a pandemic that evolves daily. The coronavirus crisis isn’t over, and we won’t stop our comprehensive coverage until it is.
Here’s to a brave new world. Thank you for being with us through it all.
