  • The subject must not have a history of receiving immunoglobulin or other blood product within the 3 months prior to enrollment in this study.
  • The subject must not receive any other inactivated vaccines within 2 weeks before or after any study vaccine or any other live vaccines within 4 weeks before or after any study vaccine in this study.
  • The subject must not have an acute or chronic medical condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would render vaccination unsafe or would interfere with the evaluation of responses (these conditions include, but are not limited to, known chronic liver disease, significant renal disease, unstable or progressive neurological disorders, diabetes mellitus, and transplant recipients).
  • The subject must not have a history of severe reactions following immunization with contemporary influenza virus vaccines.
  • The subject must not have an acute illness, including an axillary temperature greater than or equal to 100 degrees F or an oral temperature greater than or equal to 101 degrees F within 3 days prior to vaccination.
  • The subject must not have received an experimental vaccine or medication within 1 month prior to enrollment in this study, or expect to receive an experimental vaccine, medication, or blood product during the 13-month study period.
  • The subject must not have any condition that would, in the opinion of the investigator, place them at an unacceptable risk of injury or render the subject unable to meet the requirements of the protocol.
  • The subject must not have a history of Guillain-Barré syndrome.
