has thrombocytopenia or other coagulation disorder contraindicating intramuscular vaccination or repeated venipuncture. - has history or current evidence of any condition, therapy, laboratory abnormality, or other circumstance that might expose the participant to risk by participating in the study, confound the results of the study or interfere with the participant's participation for the full duration of the study. - has a history of ongoing liver disease or, at the time of screening, has any one of the following: alanine aminotransferase (alt) or aspartate aminotransferase (ast) > 1.5 × upper limit of normal (uln), alkaline phosphatase and direct bilirubin > uln (total bilirubin may be up to 2 × uln as long as direct bilirubin is equal to or below the uln), or prothrombin time (pt) international normalized ratio (inr) > 1.25. -
