Thomas Ken Mattingly was sick with jaundiceand so John L Swigert who was the back up crew member took his place for the mission.
The members of Apollo 13 were James Lovell, Ken Mattingly, and Fred Haise. However, NASA thought Ken Mattingly had te Measels so he was replaced by Jack Swigert.
Well, The crew that was supposed to go on Apollo 13 was Alan Sheppard's crew, but he got an ongoing ear infection so he and his crew got bumped. Afterwards, Jim Lovell and his crew (Fred Haise, and Ken Mattingly) were assigned for the Apollo 13 mission, but because the doctors thought Ken Mattingly was going to have the measles, he got bumped from the mission and was replaced with Jack Swigert. Hope this helps! :)
The original Apollo 13 team chosen by N.a.s.A were James Lovell, Fred Haise and Ken Mattingly, but ken Mattingly caught measles. So Mattingly was grounded and back up astronaut Jack Swigert took his place.
