There is no such malware that affects the Mac. The .vbs extension suggests that this is a VisualBasic script, which is only capable of running on a Windows machine. Thus, your Mac is not infected with anything. If you found this on a USB flash drive, and if it is truly malware, then it was put there by an infected Windows machine, and cannot affect your Mac, and thus won't be able to infect any other flash drives you connect to your Mac.
