Key Points

• In Week 15 (April 6–12, 2026), activity at SOS Médecins continued to rise among those aged 75 and older (+7%, or +499 visits) and remained stable or declined in other age groups compared to the previous week. This increase among those aged 75 and older is partly due to the Easter Monday holiday, which shifted routine care to the SOS Médecins network.
