medication such as Plaquenil, methotrexate, prednisone, Enbrel) which, in the opinion
of the investigator, might jeopardize volunteer safety or compliance with the
protocol.
10. History of blood dyscrasias, or hemoglobinopathies requiring regular medical follow up
or hospitalization during the preceding year
11. Use of any anti-coagulation medication such as Coumadin or Lovenox, or anti-platelet
agents such as aspirin.
12. Receipt of blood or blood products within the past 6 months or planned receipt of
blood products prior to completion of study visits.
13. Medical or psychiatric condition or occupational responsibilities that preclude
participant compliance with the protocol
14. Receipt of inactivated vaccine 14 days prior to enrollment, or planned non-study
vaccination prior to completion of Visit 03 or 04 (~Day 28 after the last study
vaccination)
15. Receipt of a live, attenuated vaccine within 30 days prior to first vaccination, or
planned immunization with a live, attenuated vaccine before completion of study visits
(inform study staff of any non-study vaccinations received during the study period).
16. Need for allergy immunization (that cannot be postponed) during the study period.
17. History of Guillain-Barre Syndrome
18. Use of investigational agents within 30 days prior to enrollment or planned use of
