Study Summary

This trial will compare the safety of two different influenza vaccines given with the shingles vaccine. Approximately 400 older adults will be enrolled at two medical centers. Subjects will be randomized to receive either the aIIV4 or HD-IIV4 vaccines. All subjects will be assessed for 7 days post-injection and safety and tolerability compared between the two groups. Serious adverse events and adverse events of clinical interest will be assessed 42 days post-vaccination and compared between the two groups.
