Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants Reporting Severe Unsolicited Adverse Events

    Time frame: During the 21-day follow-up period (Day 0 to Day 20) after vaccination

    An Adverse Event is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product.

    Severe unsolicited adverse events are defined as adverse events which prevent normal, everyday activities

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants Reporting Solicited Local and General Adverse Events in Subjects Aged Less Than 72 Months.

    Time frame: During the 4-day follow up (Day 0 to 3) after vaccination.

    Solicited local adverse events assessed include induration, pain, redness, and swelling. Solicited general adverse events assessed include fever, shivering, and sweating/diaphoresis.

  2. Number of Participants Reporting Solicited Local and General Adverse Events in Subjects Aged 72 Months and Older.

    Time frame: During the 4-day follow up (Day 0 to 3) after vaccination.

    Solicited local adverse events assessed include induration, pain, redness, and swelling. Solicited general adverse events assessed include fatigue, fever, shivering, malaise, myalgia, headache, and sweating/diaphoresis.

  3. Number of Participant Reporting Unsolicited Adverse Events.

    Time frame: During the 21-day follow-up period (Day 0 to Day 20) after vaccination

    An Adverse Event is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product.

  4. Number of Participants Reporting Serious Adverse Events (SAE).

    Time frame: Within 1 month following vaccination

    An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that:
