Still happy that France lost!
Sunday afternoon, while the France team faced Argentina in the World Cup final, freezing rain fell on the North, causing an influx of emergency admissions.
In the event of a French victory, we can estimate that the temptation to leave would have been greater and would have caused more damage.
Falls and slips
In Roubaix, near Lille, the evening did not need that to be hectic.
The hospital center of the city announces, this Tuesday, in a press release, to have been quickly "saturated by the influx of patients victims of falls".
"This large flow of trauma patients led us to organize a crisis unit on Sunday evening, making it possible to sort and prioritize the response to orthopedic surgery needs for victims of slips and falls", explains the director of the Roubaix hospital.
No less than twenty people demanded urgent care, as of Sunday evening, causing “a saturation of hospitalization capacities and tensions over the management of the workforce.

The hospital, which also faces many cases of influenza, therefore had to deprogram non-urgent operations, in order to free up additional beds.
The management estimates that "the situation will probably take 24 to 48 hours to resolve".
