Exclusion Criteria

The following criteria should be checked at the time of study entry. If ANY exclusion
criterion applies, the subject must not be included in the study:

-Children in care.
-Neonatal jaundice requiring systemic treatment (light therapy is allowed).
-Administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products since birth or planned administration during the study period.
-Administration of any vaccine since birth or planned administration during the study period with the exception of inactivated influenza vaccines, which can be administered seven days away from any dose of the study vaccine. The administration of routinely recommended vaccines (e.g. meningococcal serogroup C conjugate vaccine, measles-mumps-rubella vaccine) is allowed during the period ffrom completion of all study-related procedures at study Visit 7 to 30 days before study Visit 8.
-Concurrently participating in another clinical study, at any time during the study period, in which the subject has been or will be exposed to an investigational or a non-investigational product (pharmaceutical product or device).
-History of seizures or progressive neurological disease.
-Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition, based on medical history and physical examination (no laboratory testing required).
-History of any reaction or hypersensitivity likely to be exacerbated by any component of the vaccines.
-Major congenital defects or serious chronic illness, including perinatal brain damage.
The following condition is temporary or self-limiting, and a subject may be vaccinated once the condition has resolved if no other exclusion criteria is met:
