And after some more poking around, here's a downloadable PDF version of the actual study:

Quick summary: they saw a reduction in DWV-B of 83%. However, they did not see a reduction of DWV-A or DWV-C, which is perhaps surprising and makes one wonder if it was a fluke. (The -B version is not dominant in the USA but is becoming more prevalent and is more virulent than the -A and -c versions.) It also hasn't been peer reviewed and obviously there's a potential for conflict of interest.

I'd file this under "Interesting, if true."
