Health influencer topics
Pew Research Center's heatmap drew 2.3K views on X: 0.2x its typical post and #51 of 53 Pew Research Center charts we track by views. Read Oct 12, 2026.
Health and wellness influencers who post about medical topics are most often healthcare professionals.
Why it spread
It spread because the post explains itself and uses an unusual chart type, reaching 2,318 views while the account sits in the top quarter for source reach, even though likes were 4, reposts 0, quotes 0, saves 0, and the quote rate was in the bottom quarter.
What worked
- The chart type is a heatmap, which is unusual for this kind of topic and makes the post stand out in a feed.
- The post text explains itself plainly, stating that health and wellness influencers who post about medical topics are most often healthcare professionals, and that influencers without a health professional background tend to shy away from medical topics but do not avoid them entirely.
- The chart is branded, shows a source line, and has high self labelling, so viewers can quickly grasp what it shows without extra context.
What to borrow
We could use a heatmap to show how our own audience or creators behave across categories, and pair it with a short plain language caption that states the main finding first, so the chart explains itself.
Careful
Do not over read the low engagement: 4 likes, 0 reposts, 0 quotes, and 0 saves against 2,318 views suggest the post was seen more than it was acted on, and the bottom quarter quote rate means it did not spark much conversation.
