Several French regions where COVID19 has been reported currently show a renewed increase in ILI cases in the general practice based Sentinelles network. We computed the expected number of ILI consultations using the superposition of a seasonal (4) and an influenza epidemic component (5) , as detailed in the appendix. Assuming a positivity rate for SARS-CoV-2 of 2/7 in these regions, we estimated that 760 (CI95% [219, 1706]) ARI consultations in the > 65 y.o. could have been caused by COVID19 during week 10 (2/7 of 2600 ARI visits). is the author/funder, who has granted medRxiv a license to display the preprint in (which was not certified by peer review) preprint Several processes may be at play in this observation, including at least characteristics of the influenza season, change in population behaviour or increase in COVID19 incidence.	./cache/cord-345623-ba3we97o.txt	./txt/cord-345623-ba3we97o.txt
