A "beer vaccine" has been created in the US
Virologist Chris Buck has embedded virus-like particles in beer yeast that help the body fight infections.
He tested the idea on himself and his family: after five liters of such beer, tests showed an immune response, including the production of antibodies.
Now the scientist is thinking whether this method can protect against other diseases as well.
