The Global Emerging Infections Surveillance partner network reaches more than 70 countries to support and inform force health protection decision making while enhancing global health security through prevention, detection, and response to infectious disease threats. The network engagements are organized around emerging infectious disease focus areas to include antimicrobial resistant infections (including sexually transmitted infections), febrile and vector-borne infections, and respiratory infections. The following are the core GEIS partners who conduct ongoing sustainment activities on behalf of GEIS and are identified in the GEIS Strategy.
