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

Reason for recall

Potential for sterile barrier breach. Microscopic pinholes within the sterile pouch could potentially lead to non-sterile conditions.

A sterility recall means a product that must be sterile, such as an injection or eye drop, may be contaminated. Using a non-sterile product can cause serious infection.
