BOSTON â Product manufacturer 3M has filed a trademark and fraud lawsuit against a Florida company thatâs accused of selling counterfeit surgical N95 masks to a Massachusetts hospital.
The suit alleges that MM Medical Supply sold tens of thousands of counterfeit 3M masks to South Shore Health System this year. The company led the hospital to believe it was an official 3M distributor, the suit says, and sold the masks at âexorbitantly inflatedâ prices.
The suit was filed March 31 in federal court in Florida. It says the issue came to the attention of 3M after a worker at the Weymouth hospital noticed that the masks seemed off. He contacted 3M, which confirmed that the masks were fakes.

WARSAW, Poland (AP) â Hospitals in Turkey and Poland are filling up fast. Pakistan is restricting domestic travel to bring a surge in coronavirus infections under control. Even Thailand, which has weathered the coronavirus pandemic far better than many nations, is now struggling to contain a new COVID-19 surge.
Even countries where vaccine rollouts are finally getting some momentum, infections, hospitalizations and deaths are surging. And that leaves even bleaker prospects for much of the world, where largescale vaccination programs remain a more distant prospect.
The World Health Organization said Friday that it s very concerned as infection rates are rising in all of the world s regions, driven by new virus variants and too many nations and people coming out of lockdown too soon.
