Of the 8,210 recalls naming Massachusetts we have scored against our rubric, 1,171 (14%) are Critical — deaths or serious injuries reported, or the agency’s own highest classification — and 2,013 (25%) are Severe. The remaining 1 are awaiting that pass and carry the agency’s own text in the meantime; they are not counted above, because scoring them before reading them would be a guess.

These figures cover only the 8,211 recalls whose distribution notice names Massachusetts specifically. The 72,966 nationwide recalls listed below reach every state, so counting them here would make every state page show the same numbers.
