The German reports said the masks had been made by a Chinese producer for the US company 3M, but the firm issued a statement on Friday night saying: “3M has no evidence to suggest 3M products have been seized. 3M has no record of any order of respirators from China for the Berlin police. We cannot speculate where this report originated.”

Ironic because Govt also seized testing kits already allocated to Scotland and said Scot NHS not allowed to bid for its own kits or ventilators.

The Scottish Government themselves have also denied this:
