Description
#### Steps to reproduce the issue
1. Switch the site to a non-English locale that is fully translated. Tested with `af`, `fr` and `nb_NO`
2. Deactivate Jetpack and go to Tools ->Site Health. Note that all text appears in the selected locale.
3. Reactivate and connect Jetpack
4. View the Site Health page again
#### What I expected
For all text to appear in the locale the site is set to.
#### What happened instead
Specific strings on the page now appears in English instead of the selected locale

Research direction
Reproduce the issue from Tools → Site Health using the listed locales, first with Jetpack deactivated and then after reactivation and connection. Compare the displayed strings; the work is done when Site Health remains fully translated in the site's selected locale with Jetpack enabled.
