Here in the NL they're about €2,50 each, so there may be some subsidizing going on in Germany (or we're getting ripped off for €1,50 per test).

Schools and food banks can hand out free self tests so there is definitely some kind of subsidizing going on here, but in a different way.

Surely someone would import them and sell for €2 and then someone else would sell them for €1.5 and then someone else would sell them for €1.2 if you were just being ripped off. Is that really the only reason you could think of?
lol here in brazil you can only find these in drug stores, and is arround R$100 (which would be arround 15 euro/17usd).

Keep in mind that R$100 means 10% of monthly minimum wage.......
