- Safety assessed by unsolicited local and systemic adverse reactions [ Time Frame: 3 days ]Vaccine safety assessed by unsolicited local and systemic adverse reactions up to 3 days post vaccination
- Antibody response to each of the vaccine´s strains (Immunogenicity) [ Time Frame: 21 days ]Antibody response to each of the vaccine´s strains as measured by % seroconversion, and/or increase in the geometric mean of hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) titers and/or % seroprotection.
