What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product (sterility compromise leading to infection risk) where no specific injuries or illnesses have been reported in the source text, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for theoretical risk.
