Companies usually start a recall weeks before the FDA classifies and publishes it; the gap above is that lag.

Reason for recall

There have been cases of failure of the main board due to condensation water drained from the Peltier dehumidifier, leaked out from the tray, resulting in a short circuit. In the serious case, the main board and adjacent cables are partly charred. In the minor case, the Y motor and its surrounding die cast part become rusty. These failures could result in delay in patient sample testing.

Packaging recalls include wrong labels, wrong products in the wrong bottle, missing leaflets, short-filled or empty capsules and seals that fail.
