Symptoms of respiratory infections
Qualified health centers to meet the emergency and unscheduled care over the weekend in Dijon have been reinforced because of the flu epidemic. The increased demand for services in recent weeks has led to management of Primary Health Area V to increase some of the templates.

The decision was taken after the past weekend the workload increased by almost 30%.

Also increased home visits, especially in the center and the Village Gate, which are devices that are assigned a higher percentage of aging population.

The latest data from the Ministry of Health indicate that the epidemic has begun to subside, although the virus still remains at high levels of incidence and shows a significant movement among the Austrian.
However, despite the increased attention on the continuing primary care, the majority of cases “were resolved in the very center of health.” Another characteristic of those who demanded health care in last Saturday and Sunday, is that many of the patients was not of an emergency, so that might have been expected to be seen by your regular doctor. The band of increased pressure is between 11 am and two in the afternoon.
