Coronavirus - Socialist MEP demands information on EU funds for Covid testing

The Hungarian government has been allocated nearly 900 million forints (EUR 2.3m) in European Union funding to provide "cheap or even free" Covid tests, an MEP of the Socialist-Parbeszed parties said on Thursday, adding that "we do not know how the government has spent the money". Istvan Ujhelyi said he would send a letter to the prime minister asking for detailed information, later in the day.
