History of any severe adverse reactions to vaccines or to vaccine components and including history of anaphylaxis and related symptoms such as hives, respiratory difficulty, angioedema, and/or abdominal pain. (Not excluded from participation: a participant who had an anaphylactic adverse reaction to pertussis vaccine as a child).
Current or history of the following medical conditions:
1. Uncontrolled or moderate or severe respiratory diseases (e.g., asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease); symptoms of asthma severity as defined in the most recent US National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute asthma management guidelines.
2. Diabetes mellitus type 1 or type 2, or new onset of Diabetes mellitus type 1 or 2 from the administration of Dose 1, including cases controlled with diet alone (Not excluded: history of isolated gestational diabetes).
3. Hypertension:
* If a person had been found to have elevated blood pressure or hypertension during screening or previously, excluded for blood pressure that is not well controlled. Well controlled blood pressure was defined as consistently \<=140 mm Hg systolic and \<= 90 mm Hg diastolic, with or without medication, with only isolated, brief instances of higher readings, which must be ≤150 mm Hg systolic and ≤90 mm Hg diastolic at Visit 0.
* If a person did not have a history of elevated blood pressure or hypertension previously or during screening, also excluded for systolic blood pressure ≥150 mm Hg at Visit 0 or diastolic blood pressure ≥100 mm Hg at Visit 0. Exclusion pertaining to Dose 2 (all cohorts): Participants who had new onset of worsening hypertension since enrollment, that, in the opinion of the investigator would constitute an increased risk to the individual's participation in Dose 2 would not receive Dose 2.
4. Any current or history of cardiovascular diseases such as myocarditis, pericarditis, myocardial infarction, symptomatic congestive heart failure, cardiomyopathy or clinically significant arrhythmias. Exclusion pertaining to Dose 2 (all cohorts): Participants who had new onset of cardiovascular disease since enrollment, that, in the opinion of the investigator would constitute an increased risk to the individual's participation in Dose 2 would not receive Dose 2.
5. A diagnosed bleeding disorder (e.g., factor deficiency, coagulopathy, or platelet disorder requiring special precautions). Exclusion pertaining to Dose 2 (all cohorts): Participants who had new onset of a bleeding disorder since enrollment, that, in the opinion of the investigator, would constitute an increased risk to the individual's participation in Dose 2 would not receive Dose 2.
6. Seizure disorders: History of seizure(s) within the past 3 years. Also excluded if participant had used medications in order to prevent or treat seizure(s) at any time within the past 3 years.
7. Screening 12-lead ECG that was consistent with probable or possible myocarditis or pericarditis, or demonstrates clinically relevant abnormalities that may affect participant safety or interpretation of the trial results. Exclusion pertaining to Dose 2 (all cohorts): Only symptomatic participants or whose clinical picture, in the opinion of the investigator, warrant ECG will have a repeat 12-lead ECG prior to Dose 2.
* Note: ECG changes including but not limited to: paroxysmal or sustained atrial or ventricular arrhythmias, atrioventricular block (grade 2-3) or bundle branch block, diffuse ST-segment elevation or PR-segment inversion, QTcF interval (QT interval corrected by the Fridericia formula) \>450 ms in men and \>460 ms in women, changes supporting myocardial infarction and/or myocardial ischemia. Exclusion pertaining to Dose 2 (all cohorts): Subjects who had a repeat ECG prior to Dose 2 and had a change or new onset that, in the opinion of the investigator, will not receive Dose 2.
Current or history of major psychiatric illness, including but not limited to bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, schizophrenia, autism, and attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder that could interfere with participation and follow-up as required by the trial protocol.

Were vulnerable individuals as per International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) E6 definition, i.e., are individuals whose willingness to participate in a clinical trial may be unduly influenced by the expectation, whether justified or not, of benefits associated with participation, or of a retaliatory response from senior members of a hierarchy in case of refusal to participate.

Gilberts disease, in and of itself, is not considered exclusionary. Exclusion pertaining to Dose 2: Only symptomatic participants or whose clinical picture, in the opinion of the investigator, warrant laboratory investigation, would have a repeat lab(s) prior to Dose 2.
History of alcohol abuse or drug addiction within 1 year before Visit 0, or a history (within the past 5 years) of substance abuse or known medical, psychological, or social conditions which, in the opinion of the investigator, could compromise their wellbeing if they participate as participants in the trial, or that could prevent, limit, or confound the protocol-specified assessments.
