The CDC confirmed Tuesday that a few vials marked smallpox had been found at the facility. Testing has now shown they contained vaccinia, a virus that's related to the variola virus that causes smallpox. Vaccinia virus is used to make smallpox vaccine and is the origin of the word "vaccine. CDC is in close contact with state and local health officials, law enforcement, and the World Health Organization about these findings," the CDC said in a statement.
