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 (sterile surgical packs) where the hazard is theoretical due to inadequate sterilization validation, and no injuries or illnesses have been reported in the source text.
