[Medical demography from 2003 to 2025 present and future difficulties].
The present and future medical demography is determined by the French government, which decides the number of students in medicine and residents in medical specialties. There are too few students to replace retiring (65-year-old) practitioners. Medical needs may not be met in the coming 20 years. There is an urgent need to increase the number of medical students.
