Our mission is to provide an operationally relevant, global, laboratory-based influenza surveillance program that encompasses the most important respiratory diseases affecting the U.S. military.
If you are a sentinel site, we have compiled key resources (links below) to help prepare for the upcoming influenza surveillance season. The data gathered from your site will be used to track influenza activity, monitor the trends in new and existing influenza virus strains, and will be used to help shape next season's influenza vaccination.
If you have questions, please contact us at via email or call 1-937-938-3196.

The DoD Global, Laboratory-based, Influenza Surveillance Program, at USAFSAM selects military treatment facilities (MTFs) from worldwide locations to participate as Sentinel Sites. Installations are selected annually based on mission, population, deployment/operations tempo and type, and geographic location. Particular focus is on impact to critical operations, highly heterogeneous, mobile populations, potential for new strain production, and past performance. The 2016-2017 Sentinel Site listing (attached) was approved by the USAFSAM team in April 2016, in committee, and has remained unchanged for 2 years.
