   • history of severe allergic disorders (angioedema, polymorphic exudative erythema, serum disease, etc.);
   • hypersensitivity to chicken protein or vaccine components;
   • blood and components transfusion within the last 6 months.
2. Indications for immunomodulating therapy.
3. Body temperature over 37.0 °С at screening or before injection.
4. Potential evidence of a chronic infection (periodic episodes of fever within the last 6 months), or antiviral (and/or antibacterial) treatment indicated.
5. History of disorders or conditions, which, according to investigator's judgment may impact the thermal regulation (chronic infections, neuroendocrine disorders [thyrotoxicosis, pheochromocytoma, etc.], climacteric syndrome, malignant hyperthermia, CNS disorders, malignant neoplasm, connective tissue disorders, systemic vasculitis, and information on excessive physical stress or work-rest regimen deviations [within the last 2 months: night shifts, significant change of time zones, overheating]).
6. Use of antipyretics (including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and anilides) within 24 hours before randomization.
7. Surgical interventions within less than 90 days before the screening visit.
8. Systolic blood pressure of over 130 mm Hg or less than 100 mm Hg and/or diastolic blood pressure of over 90 mm Hg or less than 60 mm Hg.

9. Any other disorder, which, in the opinion of the investigator, may prevent inclusion of the volunteer due to safety reasons or may impact the study results.

   General:

10. Pregnant and nursing women.
11. Lack of ability to visit daytime inpatient facility according to the study schedule, unavailability for adequate follow-up of the volunteer.
12. Body mass index of less than 18.5 or over 30.0 kg/m2 based on the weight-height Quetelet's index.
13. Participation in another clinical study of medicinal drugs within 3 months before the start of this study.
14. Mental, physical, or other reasons which prevent adequate assessment of own behavior and prevent from meeting the study protocol conditions.
15. History of narcotic and/or drug abuse, and/or inhalant addiction, current signs of alcoholic intoxication.
