What this means for you

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: Rubric level 3 covers risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported; a latex or coating mismatch that may cause infection or allergic reaction is a potential harm and no injuries are reported.
