A Phase II, Open Label, Uncontrolled, Multi Center Study to Evaluate Safety and Immunogenicity of AGRIPPAL S1 Surface Antigen, Inactivated, Influenza Vaccine, Formulation 2009-2010, when Administered to Non-elderly Adult and Elderly Subjects - ND
- Conditions
- The virus strains responsible for influenza vary in an unpredictable fashion, therefore the type of virus as well as the magnitude of influenza activity changes from one winter to the other. Therefore it?s necessary continuous monitoring of the influenza epidemic by national surveillance systems. Following the recommendations of these surveillance systems, anti-influenza vaccines are produced ad hoc every year and distributed worldwide according to the new variants of the influenza virus.MedDRA version: 9.1Level: SOCClassification code 10021881
