A new way to treat alcoholism has emerged in the form of a vaccination. Scientists have created a vaccine that gives alcoholics an instant hangover as soon as they take a sip of a drink. Just imagine a hangover a few minutes after consuming one drink while you are out. Yeah, I would probably stop drinking too. The vaccine lasts for a good amount of time as well, once it is in a person’s body it signals the body to not process or metabolise alcohol for about 6 months to a year.
