Vaccine against obesity?

Obesity contagious? It sounds strange, but it might possibly be true. An American investigation into a virus that causes the common cold among other things, shows that obesity might be transfered from person to person through a virus. The researchers saw that chickens who have been subjected to the virus, developed 2 to 3 times more body fat than chickens who didn’t have the virus. All chickens were fed the same food. Human test subjects haven’t been examined yet, but that is sure to happen. What will be the next step? A vaccine against obesity? It almost sounds to good to be true.
