Funny enough, the share counts don't appear in Chrome either, because the AddThis scripts are blocked there as well. I have to whitelist these resources for them to appear:

s7.addthis.com
m.addthis.com
api-public.addthis.com

We will likely need to yellow-list those scripts for the counts to appear. Perhaps we could add a shim to hide the counts, and show the user an option to opt into showing AddThis-driven social media content?
