Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Hemagglutinin Antigen Inhibition Assay Titers at Day 28Day 28 Baseline

2 fold dilution series of serum, and measurement of titer which inhibits hemagglutination.

Titers were measured for each of 4 antigens in the vaccine (A/Brisbane/2018 (H1N1), A/Kansas/2017 (H3N2), B/Colorado/2017 (Vic), B/Phuket/2013 (Yam))
