Wasn't Theranos' claim that they could do tests from much less blood? So how could the results be accurate if they presumably didn't have enough samples?

They were often doing full blood draws, not finger pricks.

During the purported early use of their technology, they were also taking full-size blood draws for "validation" against existing machines, i.e. the results were actually from off-the-shelf full-sample-size machines.
