* COVID-19 infection: In participants who tested positive for COVID, at least 5 days must have passed since a COVID-19 positive test result for study entry of asymptomatic participants. Participants with mild/moderate COVID-19 infection can be enrolled if fever is resolved without use of antipyretics for 24 hours and other symptoms improved, or if 5 days have passed since the COVID-19 positive test result (whichever comes last). Participants may be rescreened if judged to be in good general health, as determined by the investigator based upon the medical history and physical examination.
