  • Who had a history of anaphylaxis, serious vaccine reactions, or allergy to any vaccine component, including but not limited to latex allergy and antibiotic allergy.
  • Who had a known or suspected impairment/alteration of immune function, either congenital or acquired or resulting from (for example):
  • Receipt of immunosuppressive therapy within 30 days prior to enrollment (systemic corticosteroids administered for more than 5 days, or in a daily dose \> 1 mg/kg/day prednisone or equivalent during any of 30 days prior to enrollment, or cancer chemotherapy);
  • Receipt of immunostimulants;
  • Receipt of parenteral immunoglobulin preparation, blood products, and/or plasma derivatives within 90 days prior to enrollment and for the full length of the study.
