“The reduced price of 1 euro for the Ffp2 masks would cause economic damage for consumers and a mockery for the whole community which, before the measures launched by the government and introduced at Christmas, could find the masks for sale at 0.80 euro. ‘a”. This was stated by Codacons, after the new decree approved by the Government which provides, in addition to the new quarantine rules, the next setting of controlled prices for Ffp2 masks.
“1 euro as a fixed price for masks is definitely too much – says President Carlo Rienzi – Before the government measures that imposed the mandatory nature of FFP2 on means of transport and public places from 25 December, it was possible to find the masks at a price of 0.80 cents.
Today the same Ffp2 have undergone astronomical increases and are sold in stores for up to € 2.60 each, with speculative increases of + 225% “.
“Setting the controlled price of the masks now at 1 euro would cause economic damage to the community and a mockery for consumers who, after the enormous increases in electricity and gas bills triggered today, would also suffer unjust state increases for the Ffp2”, he concludes Rienzi. Precisely in relation to the speculations recorded in these days in Italy on the prices of tampons and masks, the Codacons will present on Monday an exposure to 104 prosecutors of the Republic of all Italy, asking to open investigations in the territory for manipulation and speculative maneuvers on goods.
