•	Those under 5 years of age
•	Those suffering from asthma
•	Those with any underlying medical conditions like heart disease, diabetes, kidney disease, liver disease, hematological disease, neuro-muscular disorders and neuro-cognitive disorders
•	Those who have suppressed immune systems, including those infected by HIV or receiving immune-suppressing medications
