VISIUM today announced the installation of its Visium Far-UVC sanitization technology at the Miami Dolphins training facility, the Baptist Health Training Complex, ushering in a new era of protection to further improve athlete health and performance. This partnership demonstrates VISIUM’s innovative application in professional sports, offering an added layer of biosecurity to support player health, recovery, and availability.

Visium technology uses a specific wavelength of Far-UVC (222nm) to continuously inactivate pathogens in the air and on surfaces. It is invisible, silent, and safe for use in occupied spaces.
The main goal of this installation is to reduce microbial load on equipment surfaces that would come from players and the general environment. A key target pathogen is MRSA (staph), which can create a dangerous skin infection if it enters through an open wound during treatment; a specific concern in high-contact areas. Visium continuously inactivates pathogens, including MRSA, on surfaces in real time, adding an additional layer of protection against infection.
“Visium gives elite sports teams an unseen edge and provides a crucial, non-intrusive advantage for these organizations,” said John Rajchert, CEO of VISIUM. “By constantly sanitizing the air and surfaces in critical spaces, Visium is a tool to help reduce the risk of illness spreading among athletes and staff. This represents a paradigm into engineering-based solution that safeguards a team's most valuable asset: their players' health and availability.”
In the competitive landscape of professional sports, success hinges on the smallest of details – from training regimens to environmental conditions. The Miami Dolphins, already known for their state-of-the-art facilities, player amenities and high NFLPA report card rankings, once again set the bar by being early adopters of this cutting-edge technology. With the addition of Visium, the Dolphins strengthen their edge further solidifying their commitment to player health and safety at the highest levels.
“We’re always looking for ways we can reduce the spread of infection and keep our team healthy throughout the year,” said Kyle Johnston, Miami Dolphins Head Athletic Trainer. “Visium allows us to do that without any hindrance to the players or our training staff during the workday. Player health and safety will always be our top priority, and we’re excited to add this new cutting-edge technology to help us provide the best training environment possible for them.”
The installation includes 15 Visium fixtures, covering 2,618 sq ft, strategically placed in four rooms – the training room and three adjacent exam rooms. The training room is specifically for physical therapy, hydration, massage, recovery treatments, and day-to-day medical care, while the exam rooms are where personalized medical evaluations and treatments take place.

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. forces in the Caribbean Sea have seized another sanctioned oil tanker that the Trump administration says has ties to Venezuela, part of a broader U.S. effort to take control of the South American country’s oil.
The U.S. Coast Guard boarded the tanker, named Veronica, early Thursday, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem wrote on social media. The ship had previously passed through Venezuelan waters and was operating in defiance of President Donald Trump’s "established quarantine of sanctioned vessels in the Caribbean,” she said.
U.S. Southern Command said Marines and sailors launched from the aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford to take part in the operation alongside a Coast Guard tactical team, which Noem said conducted the boarding as in previous raids. The military said the ship was seized “without incident.”
Several U.S. government social media accounts posted brief videos that appeared to show various parts of the ship’s capture. Black-and-white footage showed at least four helicopters approaching the ship before hovering over the deck while armed troops dropped down by rope. At least nine people could be seen on the deck of the ship.
The Veronica is the sixth sanctioned tanker seized by U.S. forces as part of the effort by Trump’s administration to control the production, refining and global distribution of Venezuela’s oil products and the fourth since the U.S. ouster of Venezuela President Nicolás Maduro in a surprise nighttime raid almost two weeks ago.
The Veronica last transmitted its location on Jan. 3 as being at anchor off the coast of Aruba, just north of Venezuela’s main oil terminal. According to the data it transmitted at the time, the ship was partially filled with crude.
Days later, the Veronica became one of at least 16 tankers that left the Venezuelan coast in contravention of the quarantine that U.S. forces have set up to block sanctioned ships, according to Samir Madani, the co-founder of TankerTrackers.com. He said his organization used satellite imagery and surface-level photos to document the ship movements.
The ship is currently listed as flying the flag of Guyana and is considered part of the shadow fleet that moves cargoes of oil in violation of U.S. sanctions.
According to its registration data, the ship also has been known as the Gallileo, owned and managed by a company in Russia. In addition, a tanker with the same registration number previously sailed under the name Pegas and was sanctioned by the Treasury Department for being associated with a Russian company moving cargoes of illicit oil.
As with prior posts about such raids, Noem and the military framed the seizure as part of an effort to enforce the law. Noem argued that the multiple captures show that “there is no outrunning or escaping American justice.”
Speaking to reporters at the White House later Thursday, Noem declined to say how many sanctioned oil tankers the U.S. is tracking or whether the government is keeping tabs on freighters beyond the Caribbean Sea.
“I can’t speak to the specifics of the operation, although we are watching the entire shadow fleet and how they’re moving,” she told reporters.
But other officials in Trump's Republican administration have made clear they see the actions as a way to generate cash as they seek to rebuild Venezuela’s battered oil industry and restore its economy.
Trump met with executives from oil companies last week to discuss his goal of investing $100 billion in Venezuela to repair and upgrade its oil production and distribution. His administration has said it expects to sell at least 30 million to 50 million barrels of sanctioned Venezuelan oil.
