Not very much. The Black death is caused by a bacteria and the Swine Flu by a virus.

The Black death caused 15 million deaths world wide but people never heard about bacteria before and had no means to stop it (an antibiotic).

The flu also causes deaths today but we do have a vaccine and it can be prevented.

The Black Death infected the lymph system.

The flu causes a severe upper respiratory infection.
