Exclusion Criteria:

  2. The vital signs or examinations are clinically significant abnormal as determined by the investigators prior to randomization

  3. A history of severe allergy (including drugs, vaccines, and foods) or to any component of the experimental vaccine, e.g., allergic shock, allergic laryngeal edema, anaphylactoid purpura, dyspnea, and angioedema, etc.

  4. Subjects have been diagnosed with a serious disease, congenital malformation or chronic disease (including but not limited to: respiratory disease or chronic bronchitis such as asthma, serious cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, autoimmune disease, thrombocytopenic purpura, thalassemia, malignant tumor, hereditary allergic constitution, etc.) that may interfere with the conduct or completion of the study

  5. Diagnosed with diseases may affect immune system function, congenital or acquired immune deficiency or suppression (e.g., tuberculosis, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)), Hepatitis B, hepatitis C, syphilis infection, uncontrollable autoimmune disease, no spleen or spleen dysfunction

  6. Lymph node - related diseases (such as lymphadenitis, lymph node adhesion, lymph node tuberculosis, tumor metastasis, etc.) or skin scars and fistulas at the lymph node site, or lymphadenopathy, tenderness, skin redness and swelling at the lymph node site within 7 days prior to injection
