Why these products were recalled

The Tyvek(TM) lid on one, or both, of the two trays that form a double barrier around the insert may not have been adequately sealed.

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
