Brazilian scientists developing new vaccine for cocaine addiction

Dubbed "Calixcoca," the test vaccine, which has shown promising results in trials on animals, triggers an immune response that blocks cocaine and crack from reaching the brain, which researchers hope will help users break the cycle of addiction.

If so, the scientists better watch out for drug lords.

Of course, the Biden administration might mandate such vaccines for the general public because you never know...

The problem with such a vaccine is that someone who is trying to kick the habit would have to do cocaine again to find out if it works. What could possibly go wrong with that!?

Cocaine still has medical uses. I wonder what doctors would say if the government started mandating vaccines that rendered medical treatments ineffective.
