The Bangladesh government has undertaken a programme worth $550 million with an aim to procure and distribute coronavirus vaccines.

The authorities concerned are currently in negotiation with the World Bank and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) for a loan of $400 million for the programme.

Rest of the amount would be contributed by the government, said officials.

According to a top official of the Ministry of Finance, the ministry officials have been in discussion with the World Bank for a $200 million loan since August and with the AIIB for another $200 million since September.
