Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Laboratory-confirmed influenza infection

    Up to 3 years

Study Arms (2)

Adjuvanted Influenza Vaccine

EXPERIMENTAL

Fluad. A 0.25 ml intramuscular dose of the vaccine will be administered to children aged from 6 months to less than 36 months and a 0.5ml dose will be administered to children aged from 36 months to 6 years. Previously unvaccinated children who are less than 9 years of age at the time of immunization will receive a second 0.25 ml dose of the vaccine four weeks following the first vaccine as per influenza immunization recommendations if they are aged between 6 months and less than 36 months or a second dose of 0.5ml if they are aged from 36 months to 6 years.

Biological: Fluad

Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Fluzone. A 0.5 ml dose of the vaccine will be administered intramuscularly. Previously unvaccinated children who are less than 9 years of age at the time of immunization will receive a second 0.5 ml dose of the influenza vaccine four weeks following the first vaccine as per influenza immunization recommendations.
