  • are >= 18 and <= 60 years old on the day of screening (for Stratum A only);
  • are > 60 years old on the day of screening (for Stratum B only);
  • are clinically healthy (in a physical condition such that the physician would have no reservations vaccinating with an influenza vaccine outside the scope of a clinical study);
  • will reliably keep a daily record of symptoms;
  • understand the nature of the study, agree to its provisions, and give written informed consent;

  • suffer from any kind of immunodeficiency;
  • suffer from a disease (e.g. autoimmune disease) or are undergoing a form of treatment (e.g. systemic corticosteroids, chemotherapeutics) that can be expected to influence the normal immunologic functions;
  • have a history of inflammatory or degenerative neurological disease (e.g. Guillain Barré, multiple sclerosis);
  • have received a blood transfusion or immunoglobulins within 30 days of study entry;
  • have donated blood or plasma within 30 days of study entry;
  • have a history of any vaccine-related contraindicating event (e.g. anaphylaxis or other known contraindications);
