What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class II recall involving a testing failure without reported illnesses or injuries. The source states only that identification testing produced out-of-specification results; no adverse health events or safety hazard is explicitly described or implied.
