Official wording

Reason: The recalling firm identified four US lots of test strips out of specification. Affected strips show increased potential for strip errors prior to applying blood, strips not detected once inserted, or biased results, which may not be detectable. In the case of a biased result, incorrect action could be taken by the user in response to the displayed blood glucose result.
