Ultrasound kills coronavirus, new study finds – ARY NEWS
Vibrations between 25 and 100 megahertz caused the shell of the virus to collapse and start to rupture within a fraction of a millisecond
A year into the pandemic, a new study has claimed that coronaviruses, including SARS-COv-2, may be vulnerable to ultrasound vibrations within the frequencies used in medical diagnostic imaging.
Researchers from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the US modelled the virus’ mechanical response to vibrations across a range of different ultrasound frequencies via computer simulations.
