(Including, but not limited to, systemic corticosteroids exceeding 10 mg/day of prednisone equivalent, allergy injections, immunoglobulin, interferon, immunomodulators. The use of low dose topical, ophthalmic, inhaled and intranasal steroid preparations will be permitted.) 28. Prior administration of blood products in last 4 months. 29. Prior administration of other research medicines in last 1 month. 30. Received or plans to receive an attenuated vaccine within 1 month before or after each study vaccination. 31.
