- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To evaluate the immunogenicity of the 2 vaccines in terms of post-immunization geometric mean titers (GMTs), as measured by the hemagglutination inhibition (HI) test
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To evaluate the immunogenicity of the 2 vaccines in terms of seroprotection, and seroconversion or significant increase, as measured by HI test To evaluate the safety and tolerability of the 2 vaccines administered 4 weeks apart
