Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate different doses of the Influenza A/H1N1 pandemic vaccine.

Primary Objectives:

* To describe the immunogenicity of the candidate vaccines after each injection.
* To describe the safety of the candidate vaccines after each injection.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Participants will receive two injections of their randomized vaccine on Day 0 and Day 21, respectively.
