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

Reason for recall

Gloves may exhibit defects such as tears, missing fingers, and debris. Use of defective gloves may lead to healthcare personnel and patient exposure to infectious pathogens leading to infection or cross-contamination, or exposure to chemical agents leading to irritation or systemic toxicities.

Device recalls are issued when a component, software or design fault could cause the device to fail or give wrong readings. Many are corrections applied in the field rather than physical returns.
