Semaine 202512 - Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI) - Low activity in general practice

Lundi 17 mars 2025

ARI are caused by a variety of respiratory viruses including SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19), influenza viruses, and other respiratory viruses such as RSV, rhinovirus, and metapneumovirus. The purpose of ARI surveillance is to monitor outbreaks of these viruses.
 
In mainland France, last week (2025w12), the incidence rate of acute respiratory infection (ARI) cases consulting in general practice was estimated at 159 cases per 100,000 population (95% CI [142; 177]) (Data sources: Sentinelles).
Subject to future data consolidation, this rate is stable compared to previous weeks (consolidated data for 2025w11: 148 [133; 162]).

At the regional level, the highest incidence rates were noted in: Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur (471 [263; 679]), Grand Est (307 [194; 420]) and Bretagne (222 [140; 304]). 

Influenza: the incidence rate of influenza cases seen in general practice for an ARI was estimated at 42 cases per 100,000 population (95% CI [30; 54]) (Data sources: Sentinelles, SOS Médecins, DUMG Rouen and DERMG Côte d'Azur).
Subject to future data consolidation, this rate is stable compared to the previous week (consolidated data for 2025w11:  33 [25; 41]) and is at a low level of activity.

RSV infection: the incidence rate of RSV infection cases seen in general practice for an ARI was estimated at 0 RSV cases per 100,000 population (95% CI [0; 10]) (data sources: Sentinelles, SOS Médecins, Rouen and Côte d'Azur Universities). No cases of RSV infection were detected among the samples taken by Sentinel physicians for week 2025w12.
Subject to future data consolidation, this rate is stable compared to the previous weeks (consolidated data for 2025w11: 8 [4; 11]) and is at a low level of activity.

Covid-19: the incidence rate of Covid-19 cases seen in general practice for acute respiratory infection was estimated at 6 cases per 100,000 population (95% CI [4; 8]) (Data source: Sentinelles).
Subject to future data consolidation, this rate is stable compared to those of the previous weeks (consolidated data for 2025w11: 4 [3; 6]) and is at a low level of activity.

Semaine 202512 - Acute diarrhea - Moderate activity in general practice

Lundi 17 mars 2025

The purpose of acute diarrhea surveillance is to monitor gastroenteritis outbreaks.
 
In mainland France, last week (2025w12), the incidence rate of acute diarrhea cases seen in general practice was estimated at 117 cases per 100,000 population (95% CI [103; 131]). 
Subject to future data consolidation, this rate is slightly increasing compared to the previous week and corresponds to a similar activity level compared to those usually observed at this time of the year (consolidated data for 2025w11: 98 [87; 109]).

At the regional level, the highest incidence rates were noted in: Bretagne (239 [152 ; 326]), Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur (161 [33 ; 289]) and Grand Est (138 [85 ; 192]).

Lundi 17 mars 2025

In mainland France, last week (2025w12), the incidence rate of Chickenpox cases seen in general practice was estimated at 5 cases per 100,000 population (95% CI [2; 8]). 
Subject to future data consolidation, this rate is stable compared to the previous weeks and corresponds to a lower activity level than those usually observed at this time of the year (consolidated data for 2025w11: 9 [4; 13]).

At the regional level, the highest incidence rates were noted in: Bretagne (18 [0; 53]), Centre-Val de Loire (18 [0; 36]), Pays de la Loire (16 [0; 34]) and Corse (9 [0; 29]).
