Court of Auditors heavily criticizes Jens Spahn's mask procurement. During the Corona crisis, Health Minister Spahn had billions of masks purchased.

A large part of it has to be destroyed at great expense. The overall benefit was low, according to a report. More than a billion masks have already been destroyed, and another 1.7 billion are likely to be burned. Less than a third of the general protective masks and even less than a quarter of the particularly expensive particle-filtering half have been distributed.
