Since March 5, Bethesda Beat has published 167 stories about COVID-19's local impact. I feel pretty confident you're not getting the same level and volume of dedicated coverage of Montgomery County elsewhere, and I (as always) am incredibly proud of my colleagues.

You can subscribe to our (free!) newsletter here: https://bethesdamagazine.com/subscribe-to-bethesda-beat/. This sends a roundup our stories to your email each day at 11:30 a.m. We just launched a new Saturday newsletter this week, so, bonus!

You can also support Bethesda Beat by donating here: https://checkout.fundjournalism.org/memberform?org_id=bethesdabeat. I've attached a message from our editor/publisher about what your donation supports.

To put it plainly, there are a lot of stories (think of the past five weeks, for example) that wouldn't be told if the Beat wasn't around. We are proud to do this work. We understand its value, especially now. Help us help you.

And if you feel like catching up on local coronavirus news, many of our stories can be found here: https://bethesdamagazine.com/bethesda-beat/news/coronavirus-a-timeline/
