Safety reports
FDA
Consumer product alerts from this country reach the EU Safety Gate, which we read. Industrial, workplace and medical incidents never enter it, so a blank record says nothing about those.
A filing records that someone reported something. It is not a finding that the robot caused it, and we make no such finding.
