A typical post picks up 24 interactions against 693K followers, an engagement rate of 0.004%. Measured over 37 original posts, its engagement rate beats 22% of 20,444 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 4.0K times each, and 0.602% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.575% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.9 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 73% of days. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 37 posts sampled, 41% carry an image or video, 5% are part of a thread and 49% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 7.0K interactions, about 291x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #925dollyday, #fixmedicarenow.

Compared with accounts its own size

AMA's engagement rate beats 22% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.

On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 35% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Where this sits in the catalog

At 0.004%, AMA sits below the 10th percentile of the 205,374 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.024%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 205,374 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,897 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 15:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Formats this account uses

Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.

This account's posting mix compared with catalog-wide effects
FormatThis accountCatalog effect95% intervalAccounts behind it
Image or video41% of posts+111%+108% to +115%34K
Outbound link49% of posts-41%-42% to -40%32K
Typical length-+15%+14% to +16%32K
  • 41% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
  • 49% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts, so a large share of this account's output sits in the weakest bucket we measure.
  • Its average post runs 299 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% above the same accounts' other posts.

These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

    Vaccines are among the most thoroughly studied, effective tools we have to protect children from serious vaccine-preventable diseases. Decisions about how and when vaccines are used should be driven by rigorous scientific evidence, patient safety, and independent medical and public health expertise. Altering a proven vaccination schedule without credible evidence risks weakening public confidence and putting children’s health at risk. If you have questions about vaccines, talk to your child’s physician. Putting our children’s health at risk is not an option Read our full statement: https://t.co/sV1PlCDAja

    Fact check: False claims are spreading on X that Dolly Parton’s death was caused by “turbo cancer” linked to the COVID-19 vaccine. There is no evidence to support this claim. Parton’s family said she died after a brief battle with cancer, and “turbo cancer” is not a medically recognized condition. https://t.co/Vl2cwPTry7

    “Trust is a two-way street.” Physicians need to earn patients’ trust—but they also need to trust their patients. As AMA CEO Dr. John Whyte explains, that means listening, understanding the information patients bring to the exam room and recognizing their unique perspective. So, how do we rebuild trust in medicine? Read Dr. Whyte’s perspective. https://t.co/ecqbuCNcHa

What is AMA's engagement rate on X?
AMA (@AmerMedicalAssn) has an engagement rate of 0.004%, based on the median interactions across 37 original posts from the last 30 days against 692,995 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.004%, AMA sits below the 10th percentile of the 205,374 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
Does @AmerMedicalAssn have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 22% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts), which puts it in the bottom quarter for its size group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
When does @AmerMedicalAssn post?
Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.9 posts per day across the measured window.
