- Has received any influenza vaccine within the prior 6 month period.
- Chronic administration (defined as more than 14 days) of immunosuppressants or other immune-modifying drugs within six months prior to the administration of the study vaccine. The use of inhaled and nasal steroids will be permitted.
- Any medically diagnosed or suspected immunodeficient condition based on medical history and physical examination.
- Administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products within the three months preceding the administration of the study vaccine or during the study.
- Acute disease at the time of enrollment. Acute disease is defined as the presence of a moderate or severe illness with or without fever ≥ 100.5º F.
- Acute clinically significant pulmonary, cardiovascular, hepatic or renal functional abnormality, as determined by physical examination or laboratory screening tests.
- Major congenital defects or serious chronic illness.
- History of any neurological disorders or seizures, with the exception of febrile seizures during childhood.
