For the week of February 28 to March 5, activity at SOS Médecins for all age groups was down slightly (-8%), though still higher than during the same period last year. Among those over 75 and under 2, activity remained stable. The main diagnoses reported for the past week, across all age groups, were influenza and gastroenteritis.

The flu indicator is down (-18% for both diagnoses and reasons for calls), particularly among children under 15. However, it remains stable among those over 75. This trend is also observed in the emergency departments of the OSCOUR® network. Flu-related activity accounts for 8% of diagnoses and nearly 35% of reasons for calls. The level of the epidemic peak is similar to that observed during last year’s epidemic. Across regions, the influenza indicator is declining, except in the West and Southwest regions where it remains stable. The gastroenteritis indicator (8% of activity) is declining across all age groups (-10%), at a level comparable to previous seasons (2009–2010, 2010–2011).

The bronchiolitis indicator is down slightly (-12%); the trend is comparable to previous seasons (2009–2010, 2010–2011). The measles indicator has remained stable over the period. The mortality indicator is down slightly; however, it remains at a higher level than the previous year for the same period.
