Subject or subject?s parent/guardian must understand and sign a written informed consent. 4. Subjects who are willing to comply with the requirements of the protocol (e.g., completion of the diary cards, return for follow-up visits) and are available for all clinic visits scheduled in the study.

Receipt or planned receipt of any vaccine in the 4 weeks preceding or following the trial vaccination 8. Known or suspected impairment/alteration of immune function, for example resulting from: a. receipt of immunosuppressive therapy such as systemic corticosteroids known to be associated with the suppression of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis or chronic use of inhaled high-potency corticosteroids within 6 months prior to Visit 1 b. cancer chemotherapy c. receipt of immunostimulants within 6 months prior to Visit 1 d. receipt of parenteral immunoglobulin preparation, blood products and/or plasma derivatives within 3 months prior to Visit 1 or planned during the full length of the study e. known HIV infection or HIV-related disease. 9.
