A typical post picks up 788 interactions against 1.9M followers, an engagement rate of 0.042%. Measured over 44 original posts, its engagement rate beats 56% of 20,444 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 52K times each, and 1.51% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 2.78% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 7.7 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on almost every day in the window. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 44 posts sampled, 64% carry an image or video and 27% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 115K interactions, about 146x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #maha, #pmqs, #commun.

Compared with accounts its own size

Dr Aseem Malhotra's engagement rate beats 56% 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 59% 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 0.042%, Dr Aseem Malhotra sits above the 25th percentile of the 204,880 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.024% to 0.143%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 204,880 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,891 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 13:00 UTC, and Monday 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.

Engagement by hour posted, UTCTwenty-four bars, one per UTC hour. Each bar shows how posts published in that hour compare with their own authors' median engagement. Bars above the centre line ran higher than the median, bars below ran lower. A marker flags Busiest hour: 13:00 UTC.

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

  • 64% 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.
  • 27% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts.
  • Its average post runs 461 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.

    For years, we were told the possibility of a lab leak at the Wuhan Institute of Virology was a conspiracy theory. Now Anthony Fauci's former senior adviser, David Morens, has pleaded guilty to conspiring to defraud the United States by concealing COVID origins records. https://t.co/ESQyTvfmKW

    Dr. Fauci’s attorney has just notified us that Fauci refuses to appear for a private transcribed interview. The American people deserve answers to legitimate questions regarding our miserably failed response to COVID-19. Some of those questions can only be answered by Dr. Fauci. He arrogantly once stated that he was “very happy to testify before any congressional oversight committee. I have nothing to hide." Apparently, he has a lot to hide. Since Fauci refuses to talk about his role and decisions related to COVID-19, my Subcommittee will continue to obtain his records and request to speak with key individuals that he worked with. We will explore our legal options before deciding our next steps.

    People born in the 70s really won the fcking life lottery. You got to grow up without social media, buy a house before prices went completely insane, build a career before everything became a damn hustle, and still experience technology taking off. What a time to be alive.

What is Dr Aseem Malhotra's engagement rate on X?
Dr Aseem Malhotra (@DrAseemMalhotra) has an engagement rate of 0.042%, based on the median interactions across 44 original posts from the last 30 days against 1,871,337 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.042%, Dr Aseem Malhotra sits above the 25th percentile of the 204,880 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 @DrAseemMalhotra have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 56% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range 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 @DrAseemMalhotra post?
Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day, at roughly 7.7 posts per day across the measured window.
