• their parents/guardians understand the nature of the clinical study and will comply with the requirements of the protocol (e.g., completion of the Subject Diary, return for follow-up visits);

• they have a history of severe allergic reactions, in particular a known sensitivity or allergy to any components of the vaccines;
• they are suffering from a disease (e.g. autoimmune disease) or are undergoing a form of treatment (e.g. systemic corticosteroids) that can be expected to influence immunological functions;
• they have received any blood product or immunoglobulins within 90 days prior to study entry;
• they are known to be Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) positive (an HIV test is not required specifically for the purpose of this study);
• they have a functional or surgical asplenia;
• they have a rash or other dermatological condition at the injection site which could interfere with injection site reaction evaluation;
• they were administered an investigational product within six weeks prior to study start or are concurrently participating in another clinical study that includes the administration of an investigational product;
• they are pregnant or breastfeeding (if a female subject);
• they or their parents/legal guardian(s) are in a dependent relationship with the study investigator or with a study team member. Dependent relationship includes close relatives (i.e., children or grandchildren, partner/spouse, siblings) as well as employees of the investigator or site conducting the study.
• Subjects who have an acute illness with or without elevated body temperature (>=37.5°C) within 3 days prior to the scheduled first vaccination will not be vaccinated. Subjects may be included at a repeat visit provided that (1) the illness has resolved (body temperature < 37.5 °C), (2) the repeat visit is no more than 14 calendar days after the Screening Visit, and (3) the center is still open for recruitment.
• If subjects have received antipyretics within 4 hours prior to the scheduled time of vaccination, the vaccination should be performed at a later date, as long as the center is still open for recruitment.
• Subjects who received any live vaccine within 4 weeks or any inactivated vaccine within 2 weeks prior to the scheduled first study vaccination will not be vaccinated until an interval of 4 or 2 weeks, respectively, has passed, provided the center is still open for recruitment.
• If a subject was bitten by a tick within 4 weeks prior to the scheduled first or second vaccination, the vaccination must be postponed until an interval of 4 weeks has passed.
