• Unstable cardiopulmonary disease requiring chronic medical therapy or associated with functional impairment.
• Presence of blood dyscrasias, including hemoglobinopathies and myelo- or lymphoproliferative disorder.
• Receipt of systemic glucocorticoids within 1 month of study enrollment, or any cytotoxic or immunosuppressive drugs within six months of study enrollment. Inhaled and topical steroids are allowed.
• A history of any demyelinating disease including Multiple Sclerosis and Guillain-Barré syndrome.
• Presence of an active neurological disorder.
• History of chronic alcohol consumption and/or drug abuse.
• Any significant disorder of coagulation that increases the risk of intramuscular injections or treatment with coumadin derivatives or heparin. Persons receiving prophylactic antiplatelet medications, e.g. low-dose aspirin, and without a clinically-apparent bleeding tendency are eligible.
• Receipt of an influenza vaccine within 6 months prior to study enrollment.
• Administration of any vaccines within 30 days prior to study enrollment or during the study period. Subjects who receive such treatment after enrollment will be followed per protocol and included in the safety analysis, but excluded from the according-to-protocol cohort.
• Administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products within the three months preceding the administration of the study vaccine or planned during the study.
• Any known or suspected allergy to any constituent of Fluviral® and/or a history of anaphylactic type reaction to constituent of the vaccine.
• A history of severe adverse reaction to a previous influenza vaccination.
• Lactating/nursing female.
• Any condition which, in the opinion of the investigator, prevents the subject from participation in the study.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) of Hemagglutination Inhibition (HI) Antibodies	Data are displayed as GMTs for each of the three influenza virus vaccine strains: A/Brisbane(H1N1); A/Uruguay(H3N2); B/Brisbane.	At Day 0
GMTs of HI Antibodies	Data are displayed as GMTs for each of the three influenza virus vaccine strains: A/Brisbane(H1N1); A/Uruguay(H3N2); B/Brisbane.	At Day 21 after vaccination
Number of Subjects With a Serum HI Titer Equal to or Above the Cut-off Value	The cut-off value was defined as a serum HI titer >= 1:40, which is usually accepted as indicating protection. Data are displayed for each of the three influenza virus vaccine strains: A/Brisbane(H1N1); A/Uruguay(H3N2); B/Brisbane.	At Day 0
Number of Subjects With a Serum HI Titer Equal to or Above the Cut-off Value	The cut-off value was defined as a serum HI titer >= 1:40, which is usually accepted as indicating protection. Data are displayed for each of the three influenza virus vaccine strains: A/Brisbane(H1N1); A/Uruguay(H3N2); B/Brisbane.	At Day 21 after vaccination
Number of Seroconverted Subjects	A seroconverted subject is a subject who had either a prevaccination titer < 1:10 and a post-vaccination titer >= 1:40 or a pre-vaccination titer >= 1:10 and at least a four-fold increase in post-vaccination titer. Data are displayed for each of the three influenza virus vaccine strains: A/Brisbane(H1N1); A/Uruguay(H3N2); B/Brisbane.	At Day 21 after vaccination
Seroconversion Factors	Seroconversion factors are defined as the fold increase in serum HI GMTs post-vaccination (Day 21) compared to pre-vaccination (Day 0).

Number of Subjects Reporting Related Solicited General Symptoms	Solicited local symptoms assessed include bronchospasm, chills, cough, fatigue, headache, joint pain at other location, muscle aches, red eyes, sore throat, swelling of the face, temperature (orally) in degrees celsius. Related = general symptom assessed by the investigator as related to the vaccine	During a 4-day (Day 0-3) follow-up period after vaccination
Number of Subjects Reporting Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs)	Unsolicited AE covers any AE reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study and any solicited symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up for solicited symptoms. Any = unsolicited adverse event regardless of intensity. Grade 3 = unsolicited AE that prevented normal activity Related = unsolicited AE assessed by the investigator as related to the vaccination.
