Measure
FSME-IMMUN 0.5mL Baxter
FSME-IMMUN 0.5mL Baxter is non-US licensed vaccine for tick-borne encephalitis. The FSME-IMMUN 0.5mL Baxter is available as 0.5mL in a pre-loaded vaccine syringe. All participants will receive active vaccine using a rapid immunization schedule, with vaccine administration on Days 0, 14, 161 and 245. Participants that test seropositive for tick-borne encephalitis or subjects that develop positive viral neutralizer titers after the 3rd or 4th vaccine will be given a booster of FSME-IMMUN 0.5mL Baxter vaccine at 3, 6 and 9 years after enrollment.
