It's the same thing. They changed the name because people weren't buying pork .

They named it H1-N1 because it didnt have much to do with pigs. People were panicing because they had pigs on thier famrs and they thought thy were gonn get swine flu. So they renamed it.

H1N1 is the scientific name for Swine Flu. Swine Flu is being referred to as it's scientific name to avoid confusion. Egypt tried slaughtering hundreds of pigs to prevent the spread, but Swine Flu is not actually spread through pigs.

Same thing, different name.
H1N1 is the scientific form to "Swine Flu"
