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 (2023w21), the incidence rate of ARI cases consulting in general practice was estimated at 97 cases per 100,000 inhabitants (95% CI [75; 119]). This rate is stable compared to week 2023w20 (consolidated data: 68 [57; 79]).

At the regional level, the highest incidence rates were noted in: Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur (253 [128; 378]), Grand Est (171 [103; 239]), Bourgogne-Franche-Comté (145 [57; 233]) and Corse (145 [44; 246]).

COVID-19: the incidence rate of Covid-19 cases with respiratory signs seen in general practice was estimated at 20 cases per 100,000 population (95% CI [16; 24]), representing 13,343 [10,416; 16,270] new cases of Covid-19 with respiratory signs seen in general practice. This rate is slightly increasing compared to the previous week.

The virological surveillance of ARI, which allows the monitoring of influenza and RSV epidemics, ended on May 14 (for the 2022-2023 winter season). It will resume next fall.
