World Bank Threatens to Stop Covid Jab Finance Over Wrongdoings by Lebanese MPs Published February 24th, 2021 - 08:03 GMT Lebanese plan to vaccinate MPs comes despite promises Covid-19 inoculation campaign would avoid nepotism (Twitter) Highlights Lebanon is notorious for corruption and nepotism, which has brought the Mediterranean nation to bankruptcy. The World Bank threatened Tuesday to suspend financing for coronavirus vaccines in Lebanon over what it said were suspected violations by lawmakers who were inoculated in parliament. Such a move by the World Bank would have grave consequences as Lebanon struggles through severe financial and economic crises and is in desperate need of aid. The World Bank said last month it approved $34 million to help pay for vaccines for Lebanon that will inoculate over 2 million people. The vaccination campaign in the country began on Feb. 14 and Lebanon has so far received nearly 60,000 shots of Pfizer-BioNTech.
