able to comply with all study requirements
-
in good health as determined by:
-
medical history
-
physical examination
-
clinical judgment of the investigator
Exclusion Criteria:
- They have any serious chronic or acute disease (in the judgment of the investigator) including but not limited to:

-
They have history of any anaphylactic reaction and/or serious allergic reaction following a vaccination, a proven hypersensitivity to any component of the study vaccine (e.g., to ovalbumin, chicken protein, chicken feathers, influenza viral protein, kanamycin and neomycin sulphate);
-
They have a known or suspected (or have a high risk of developing) impairment/alteration of immune function (excluding that normally associated with advanced age) resulting, for example, from:
-
receipt of immunosuppressive therapy (any parenteral or oral corticosteroid or cancer chemotherapy/radiotherapy) within the past 60 days and for the full length of the study;
-
receipt of immunostimulants;
-
receipt of parenteral immunoglobulin preparation, blood products and/or plasma derivates within the past 3 months and for the full length of the study;
-
suspected or known HIV infection or HIV-related disease;
-
They have a known or suspected history of drug or alcohol abuse;
-
They have a bleeding diathesis or condition associated with prolonged bleeding time that in the investigator's opinion would interfere with the safety of the subject;
-
Women who are pregnant, or women able to bear children but not willing to practice acceptable contraception for the duration of the trial (21 days);
-
Within the past 12 months, they have:
-
received more than one injection of influenza vaccine
-
Within the past 6 months, they have:
-
had laboratory confirmed influenza disease;
-
received influenza vaccine;
-
Within the past 4 weeks they have received:
-
another vaccine;
-
any investigational agent;
-
They have any acute or chronic infection requiring systemic antibiotic treatment or antiviral therapy within the last 7 days; 1 - They have experienced an acute exacerbation of a COPD within the past 14 days
