Both the Distributor Letter and Customer Letter include Response Sheets that allows for both Distributor and Customer (end-user) to indicate the quantity of affected product they have in their inventory or indicate whether they do not have any affected product. Distributors were instructed to cease further shipment of the product and to physically quarantine the product and fax the completed Response Sheet within 5 business days of receipt of the letter.
