PA Department of Health engagement report
@PAHealthDept - 97K followers on X
Measured over 59 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 24, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 2 interactions against 97K followers, an engagement rate of 0.002%. Measured over 59 original posts, its engagement rate beats 6% of 3,882 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 1.3K times each, and 0.152% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.36% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 70% of days. Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 59 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video and 47% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 38 interactions, about 19x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
PA Department of Health's engagement rate beats 6% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,882 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 5 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 9% 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.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 12:00 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.

Pennsylvania Secretary of Health Dr. Debra Bogen released the following statement in response to the Trump Administration's executive order to try to upend the nation’s childhood vaccine schedule: "In Pennsylvania, public health decisions are guided by rigorous medical science, not shifting national agendas. Vaccines are the best tools we have to protect our communities from preventable diseases, and they have demonstrated this over and over again for generations. As a pediatrician, I know that splitting up combination immunizations, like the MMR vaccine, creates unnecessary hurdles for parents, needlessly extends the window of risk for our youngest residents, and doesn’t follow the results of the many studies that went into developing the previous vaccine schedules. Here in Pennsylvania, we will continue to follow the facts and evidence-based medicine to keep our children and communities safe."

Ticks can hitch a ride into your house on your clothes. If you spot any, pull them off right away, then toss your dry clothes in the dryer on high for 10 minutes. Doing laundry first? Make sure to use hot water — cold or warm won’t kill ticks. https://t.co/r39ulBSgcT

Tick tip! Jump in the shower after being outside — it rinses off any ticks that haven’t attached, and it’s the perfect time for a quick tick check. Showering within 2 hours can lower your risk of Lyme disease and may lower the risk of other tickborne diseases. https://t.co/wHwjkzbWTK

- What is PA Department of Health's engagement rate on X?
- PA Department of Health (@PAHealthDept) has an engagement rate of 0.002%, based on the median interactions across 59 original posts from the last 30 days against 96,759 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.002%, PA Department of Health sits above the 10th percentile of the 37,582 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 @PAHealthDept have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 6% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,882 accounts), which puts it in the bottom 10% 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 @PAHealthDept post?
- Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.97 posts per day across the measured window.
