Seroprotection rate: the proportion of participants with a HI titer level of ≥1:40

Seroconversion rate: the percentage of subjects with either a pre-vaccination HI titer ≥1:10 and a ≥4-fold increase in post-vaccination HI antibody titer from baseline or pre-vaccination HI titer <1:10 and a post-vaccination HI titer of ≥1:40
