Key Points

COVID-19

• After several weeks of decline, COVID epidemic indicators are on the rise again (incidence rate and positivity rate, in particular). The trend in Sidep indicators remains difficult to interpret due to the drop in incidence caused by public holidays in recent weeks. It is therefore normal to see a rebound in incidence once this period has passed.

• However, excluding the long weekends for Ascension Day and Pentecost, incidence rates are stagnating or even rising slightly across all departments and for all age groups over 15 years old.

• Furthermore, the number of new hospitalizations is decreasing, while the number of new admissions to intensive care is increasing very slightly (+5). These trends toward a possible resurgence of the epidemic remain to be confirmed in the coming days and weeks.

Extreme heat, heat wave

• No unusual increase in activity in emergency departments in Bourgogne-Franche-Comté.
