11) Thrombocytopenia, as reported by the parent(s)/legally acceptable
representative.
12) Bleeding disorder, or receipt of anticoagulants in the 3 weeks preceding inclusion, contraindicating IM vaccination.
13) History of central nervous system disorder or disease, including seizures.
14) Chronic illness that, in the opinion of the Investigator, is at a stage where it might interfere with trial conduct or completion.

Temporary Exclusion Criteria:
A prospective subject must not be included in the study until the following conditions and/or symptoms are resolved:
16) Febrile illness (temperature ≥ 38.0°C) or moderate or severe acute
illness/infection (according to Investigator judgment) on the day of vaccination.
17) Receipt of any vaccine in the 4 weeks preceding the first trial vaccination. |
