No. Swine Flu is caused by a strain of virus that is a mutation of the swine influenza virus, that is now transmittable by human to human contacts, called Novel H1N1 flu. Typically flu viruses thrive in cooler weather with lower absolute humidity levels, as evidenced by the seasonal flu each year occurring in the fall and winter months. See the related question below for more information on what caused the "Swine Flu".
