"Swine Flu" (A9 H1N1) is a hybrid of the following influenza strains:

* North American Swine (Pig)
* North American Avian (Bird)
* European/Asian Swine (Pig)
* Human Influenza

The new virus 'attacks' the upper respiratory tract (your throat) which makes it much less dangerous than it would be if it entered the lungs.

A gene named NS1 is also described as 'normal' which means that the virus is unlikely to result in serious pneumonia.
