Summary

Children younger than 5 years of age are at high risk for severe influenza disease (flu) and hospitalization due to flu. Scientists are in the process of re-evaluating the dosing initially based on whole virus vaccines to improve their efficacy in infants. In this study, we will compare two different dose levels of GSK1557482A flu vaccine. Another already approved flu vaccine made by a different company will be used as a control.
