Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI) Covid-19, Influenza and other respiratory viruses Définition
Moderate activity in general practice
Previously on sentiweb
In mainland France, last week (2024w41), the incidence rate of acute respiratory infection (ARI) cases consulting in general practice was estimated at 208 cases per 100,000 population (95% CI [200; 216]) (Data sources: Sentinelles and Electronic Medical Records (EMR) IQVIA)).
Subject to future data consolidation, this rate is stable compared to the previous week (consolidated data for 2024w40: 213 [204; 221]).
At the regional level, the highest incidence rates were noted in: Grand Est (321 [285; 357]), Bretagne (299 [246; 351]) and Hauts-de-France (232 [205; 260]).
Covid-19: the incidence rate of Covid-19 cases seen in general practice for acute respiratory infection was estimated at 59 cases per 100,000 population (95% CI [50; 69]), corresponding to 39,677 [33,376; 45,978] new cases (Data source: Sentinelles).
Subject to future data consolidation, this incidence rate was stable compared to the previous week. There has been however a global downward trend over the past three weeks, except among the 65 and above age group where the incidence remains at a high level of activity.
RSV: the incidence rate of RSV cases seen in general practice for acute respiratory infection was estimated at 3 cases per 100,000 population (95% CI [1; 6]), corresponding to 2,171 [379; 3,963] new cases (Data source: Sentinelles, Rouen and Côte d'Azur DUMG, SOS Médecins).
Subject to future data consolidation, this rate is stable compared to the previous week. No active circulation of RSV is observed for now in primary care. This level of activity is similar to past seasons at the same time of the year.
Influenza: the incidence rate of influenza cases seen in general practice for acute respiratory infection was estimated at 0 case per 100,000 population (95% CI [0; 8]) (Data source: Sentinelles, Rouen and Côte d'Azur DUMG, SOS Médecins).
Subject to future data consolidation, this rate is stable compared to the previous week. No active circulation of influenza viruses is observed for now in primary care. This level of activity is similar to past seasons at the same time of the year.

Acute diarrhea Définition
Low activity in general practice
Previously on sentiweb
In mainland France, last week (2024w41), the incidence rate of acute diarrhea cases seen in general practice was estimated at 80 cases per 100,000 population (95% CI [57; 103]).
Subject to future data consolidation, this rate is slightly increasing compared to the previous week (consolidated data for 2024w40: 70 [60; 80]) and corresponds to a low activity level compared to those usually observed at this time of the year.
At the regional level, the highest incidence rates were noted in: Occitanie (103 [60; 146]), Hauts-de-France (100 [59; 141]) and Normandie (88 [0; 191])

Warning
COVID-19 and Influenza Surveillance : role of the Sentinelles network
In March 2020, following the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19), the “Sentinelles surveillance” evolved. The surveillance of “influenza-like illness” (ILI, defined as sudden onset of fever above 39°C, accompanied by myalgia and respiratory signs) has been replaced by “acute respiratory infections” (ARI, defined as sudden onset of fever or feeling of fever and respiratory signs). This new surveillance enables both the monitoring of the COVID-19 pandemic and epidemics due to other respiratory viruses (influenza, respiratory syncytial virus, rhinovirus and metapneumovirus), based on patients consulting a general practitioner for an ARI. This surveillance is carried out with “Santé publique France” (the national agency for public health), the National Reference Center for respiratory infections (“Institut Pasteur” and “Hospices Civils de Lyon”) and the University of Corsica.
Data from the Sentinelles network are integrated into the overall national COVID-19 surveillance coordinated by “Santé publique France”. For more information, you can consult the weekly COVID-19 and influenza newsletters from “Santé publique France”.
At the same time, the Sentinelles network is leading studies and research works on the COVID-19 presented in the “COVID-19” section of this website.
