If the transistor had been invented in 1920—likely by researchers at Bell Labs or a similar entity—the "Electronic Age" would have arrived twenty-seven years earlier.

You have a patient safety issue, not a PR issue. The 6 month regulatory reporting timeline is the formal process, not the ethical or legal obligation to act now. Waiting for more data while patients continue to be exposed is criminal negligence exposure, not risk mitigation.
