Swine influenza also known as Swine flu and carries the scientific name H1N1 influenza A and refers to influenza caused by any strain of the influenza virus found in pigs.
Swine flu is normally rare in humans. These strains infrequently circulate between humans and rarely mutates into a form able to pass from human to human. In humans, the symptoms of swine flu are similar to those of the common flu and of influenza-like illness and consist of namely chills, fever, sore throat, muscle pains, severe headache, coughing, and, weakness.
The 2009 outbreak in humans apparently is not due to a swine influenza virus. The strain is in most cases causing only mild symptoms and the infected people make a full recovery without medical attention and the use of antiviral medicines.
