The Department of Defense (DoD) Global Emerging Infections Surveillance and Response System (DoD-GEIS) identifies and addresses DoD vulnerabilities to emerging infections through a global network of partners. Following the Indian Ocean tsunami of December 26, 2004, DoD-GEIS facilitated the DoD medical response and coordination with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization. DoD-GEIS partners in Southeast Asia (U.S. Naval Medical Research Unit 2, Jakarta, Indonesia; and Armed Forces Research Institute of Medical Sciences, Bangkok, Thailand) rapidly conducted health assessments and established surveillance for communicable diseases that threatened survivors. Preexisting collaboration with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the World Health Organization, and host countries was critical for the DoD-GEIS tsunami response.
美国国防部全球新兴传染病监测与应对系统（DoD-GEIS）通过全球合作伙伴网络识别并应对国防部在面对新兴传染病时的脆弱性。2004年12月26日印度洋海啸发生后，DoD-GEIS推动了国防部的医疗应对行动，并与疾病控制与预防中心以及世界卫生组织进行协调。DoD-GEIS在东南亚的合作伙伴（位于印度尼西亚雅加达的美国海军医学研究单位2以及位于泰国曼谷的武装部队医学科学研究院）迅速开展了健康评估，并对威胁幸存者的传染病建立了监测。此前与疾病控制与预防中心、世界卫生组织以及东道国的合作对于DoD-GEIS的海啸应对至关重要。
