Current or previous, confirmed or suspected disease caused by N. meningitidis. Household contact with and/or intimate exposure to an individual with any laboratory confirmed N. meningitidis infection within 60 days prior to study vaccination. Acute disease and/or fever within 3 days prior to study vaccination. Note: enrolment may be postponed/delayed until such transient circumstances have ended. Fever is defined as body temperature ≥38.0°C/100.4°F. The preferred location for measuring temperature in this study will be the oral cavity. Subjects with a minor illness (such as mild diarrhoea, mild upper respiratory infection) without fever may be enrolled at the discretion of the investigator.
