They are not counts in majority of labs, specifically automated counts, but rather estimated percentages. That does not mean they are missing completely, they are too rare to count, which would still be normal.

All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, your results are not a cause for concern. Wish you good health!
