Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: •Use of any investigational or non-registered product (pharmaceutical product or device) at the time of enrolment or planned use during the study period; •Previous vaccination against VZV or HZ and/or planned administration during the study of a VZV or HZ vaccine (including an investigational or non-registered vaccine other than the HZ/su vaccine administered in studies ZOSTER-006/022); •Chronic administration (defined as > 14 consecutive days in total) of immunosuppressants or other immune-modifying drugs during the period starting six months prior to Visit Month 0 of study ZOSTER-049 or expected administration at any time during the study period.

A suspected case of HZ can be confirmed in two ways: •By Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) •By the HZ Ascertainment Committee (HZAC) 2. Number of Post-Herpetic Neuralgia (PHN) cases defined by the presence of HZ-associated severe ‘worst’ pain persisting or appearing more than 90 days after onset of the HZ rash. 3. Number of HZ related complications (other than PHN including HZ vasculitis, disseminated disease, ophthalmic disease, neurologic disease, visceral disease or stroke. 4.
