A research team from Sao Paulo University in Brazil has proven in laboratory conditions that ultrasound waves, which are used for imaging in medicine, can neutralize viruses. During experiments, successful results were achieved when coronavirus and influenza viruses were exposed to ultrasound waves.
The research demonstrates that sound waves can disrupt viral structure and eliminate their infectious properties. Scientists note that the findings could be adapted to treatment methods in the coming period.
Research from São Paulo University has demonstrated that high-frequency ultrasound waves can inactivate coronavirus and influenza viruses by disrupting their physical structure. While the method proved successful in laboratory settings, more comprehensive studies are required before clinical application.
Since ultrasound technology already exists in hospitals, if this finding is integrated into antiviral treatments in the future, your treatment options could expand. However, as this method will not be applied to hospitals in the near term, you need to continue relying on existing vaccines and medications for current viral infections.
