Overall Activity Trends: Over the past week, SOS Médecins activity declined across all age groups (-13%, or 7,168 fewer visits) both nationally and regionally. This decline is primarily due to the fact that the previous two weeks had seen an increase in activity due to long weekends (Ascension Day and Pentecost). The numbers are consistent with those observed in 2012 and 2013.

Trends in Major Conditions The primary reasons for consultations are ENT infections and gastroenteritis, particularly among children.

Trends in seasonal indicators Consultations for heatstroke and dehydration have dropped sharply over the past week (-71%, or 149 fewer visits for heatstroke; -50%, or 52 fewer visits for dehydration), following a peak around June 14. This decrease is observed across all age groups. However, a new increase in consultations for these indicators was observed at the end of the week, primarily in the West and Southwest regions. The numbers observed are once again consistent with those from 2012 and 2013 for both indicators. Similarly, the insect bite indicator is generally down this week across all age groups (-26%, or -139 visits), though there has been an increase over the last two days. The observed numbers remain higher than those in 2012 and 2013. The malaise indicator is the only one on the rise this week, particularly among those aged 15–74 (+15%, or +31 cases). As with other summer ailments, case numbers are higher than those in 2012 and 2013 for the same period, but with values close to those typically observed later in the season. The number of consultations for asthma is down (-40%, or -253 visits), with numbers similar to those in 2012 for the same period. Consultations for allergies are down (-28%, or -362 visits) after rising sharply the previous week, with a peak around June 10. The number of visits is very close to the level observed in early June 2012 (higher than in 2011). The indicator for isolated fever is down in all age groups except among 5- to 14-year-olds, where numbers are slightly up (+6%, or +13 cases).
