The disease was originally known in English as the "pox" or "red plague"; the term "smallpox" was first used in Britain in the 15th century to distinguish variola from the "great pox" (syphilis). The last naturally occurring case of smallpox (Variola minor) was diagnosed on 26 October 1977.

These are called the 'Terror in the Freezer' since many people are no longer vaccinated for this disease. Placing this virus in a weapon form, could wipe out millions of people.
