The police program collected pinprick blood samples from somewhere between 919,282 and 1,206,962 people.

Copious evidence from both reports dating as far back as 2016 shows that the Xi Jinping administration’s police program collected pinprick blood samples from somewhere between 919,282 and 1,206,962 of the citizens living within the Tibet Autonomous Region.
