• Acute or chronic clinically significant pulmonary, cardio-vascular, hepatic or renal functional abnormality, as de-termined by medical history and physical examination.
• Acute disease at the time of enrolment. (Acute disease was defined as the presence of a moderate or severe ill-ness with or without fever. All vaccines could be adminis-tered to persons with a minor illness such as diarrhea, mild upper respiratory infection with or without low-grade febrile illness, i.e. oral/axillary temperature <37.5°C (99.5°F) or rectal temperature <38.0°C (100.4°F).

• Receipt of another seasonal influenza vaccine outside of this study, during current (2009-2010) flu season.
• Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or im-munodeficient condition based on medical history and physical examination (no laboratory testing required).
• Chronic administration (defined as more than 14 days) of immunosuppressants or other immune-modifying drugs within six months prior to the first vaccination (for corti-costeroids, this meant prednisone greater than or equal to 10 milligram/day (10 mg/day), or equivalent). Inhaled and topical steroids were allowed.
• Administration of immunoglobulins and/or blood products within the 3 month preceding the first dose of study vac-cine or planned administration during the study period.
