SOS Médecins National Newsletter, February 23, 2010

Over the past week, the total volume of activity at SOS Médecins clinics decreased slightly compared to the previous week. This decrease was primarily observed among children aged 2 to 14.

Nationally, the reasons for calls suggesting flu-like symptoms have remained stable across all geographic regions for over a month. Over the past week, diagnoses of "clinical flu" have remained stable at a very low level across all age groups: these diagnoses account for less than 1% of activity.

The proportion of cases for the "gastroenteritis" indicator has declined slightly over the past few weeks but remains at a high level, accounting for between 20% and 25% of calls.

The proportion of cases for the "bronchiolitis/respiratory conditions in infants" indicator has decreased nationwide, except in the Centre/Ile-de-France region, where it has stabilized.

The number of deaths certified by the SOS Médecins associations is similar to that of the previous week.

For the past week, a slight decrease in overall activity was observed in most regions.
