Lebanon’s parliament reconvened for the first time in more than a month today, but the lawmakers were not above the law when it came to anti-coronavirus measures.
The members of parliament met in a Beirut theater where they observed social distancing and were sprayed with disinfectant by medics, according to The Associated Press. Laws on corruption and public funds are on the agenda, and the parliament voted to allow the planting of cannabis for medical use, AP reported. Parliament stopped meeting in March as the country instituted measures to curb the transmission of COVID-19.
