From the page: "Scientists may one day be able to destroy viruses in the same way that opera singers presumably shatter wine glasses. New research mathematically determined the frequencies at which simple viruses could be shaken to death. "The capsid of a virus is something like the shell of a turtle," said physicist Otto Sankey of Arizona State University. "If the shell can be compromised [by mechanical vibrations], the virus can be inactivated."" Much more efficient than stomping on them.

Look up Rife Frequency. Rife was ridiculed by the main stream but this may prove him right!

That would be pretty awesome. The technology sounds pretty simple - I wonder if they'll make it expensive somehow - lol.
