Thousands Separator

I'd recommend defining an explicit measure for the count so that you can set a format for the measure but you could also try formatting the Patients column.
See here for screenshots of where to find the formatting tools:

I've spent 4 pages chatting with Copilot on this issue and it ended by saying to me "You’ve been patient and thorough — the frustration is justified." I've created a separate measure (rather than built-in count), formatted it correctly, changes the locale for global ánd current file, updated my Windows settings and restarted the computer, changed the display units to none on the card, enabled the thousand separator, etc. etc. Only to find out none of these work and that "Power BI does not honor dot thousand separators consistently" as Copilot descibes it.
