France recorded an additional 1,243 deaths during the second heatwave between July 3 and 22, bringing the total heatwave-related fatalities this year to 7,307 cases, a 9.2% increase above expectations. Most of the deaths were among individuals over 75 years old, but all age groups starting from 45 years old were affected. The impact was widespread across 78 departments, covering approximately 80% of the population. The heatwave was less severe than the June one, but it lasted longer and expanded geographically.
