Price of face masks plummets following Dutch government fire sale

Fleur Bakker, of the Mondmaskerfabriek, said her company had been offered boxes of masks from Lithuania for between €1.25 and €2 for a box of 50 masks via a Dutch intermediary.

Further enquiries revealed that the masks were the same ones the Lithuanian firm had bought from the government's procurement agency LCH for around €0.64 per box last year.
