Rate of community-acquired pneumonia as indicated within the Antibioclic computerized decision support system, France, December 2017–January 2024. A) Overall population; (B) adults; (C) children. Light blue line indicates average number of system requests in 2018–2019 (pre‒COVID-19 pandemic); dark blue line indicates average number of system requests in 2020–2022 (during pandemic); red line indicates average number of system requests in 2023. Light gray area indicates a surge in 2023 starting in epidemiologic week 29 and dark gray indicates surge in 2023 starting in week 39; we noted that surges began earlier in children than adults. The dashed vertical line represents the first national alert from the Ministry of Health associated with a possible outbreak of Mycoplasma pneumoniae.
