Gastroenteritis and acute diarrhea

  • Oscour® Network: Moderate activity in hospital settings.

  • SOS Médecins: Moderate activity in private practice.

Bronchiolitis

  • Preliminary assessment: The 2022–2023 epidemic was particularly long, with 14 epidemic weeks for the Occitanie region (compared to 8 weeks in pre-COVID-19 years) and a peak observed in week 48 of 2022. Occitanie is now in the green zone (epidemic over) given the low level of RSV circulation. Indicators related to bronchiolitis will no longer be presented in future Epidemiological Updates.
