No. The scientifically-based answer is that this is a naturally evolved virus, the cause is well understood and explained by science. This viral mutation does not involve creation in labs, scientists, conspiracies, or terrorists. Viruses have mutated in this way for thousands, if not millions, of years.
See the related question below, about what caused the 2009 Swine Flu.
Alternate Opinion
It is not likely a pig naturally got sick with two different flus from two different continents, and then got infected by two different bird flus, and then a human flu all at the same time. That's how these things combine, the host has to be sick with multiple agents at the same time for the vectors to link. There would be natural stepping stone outbreaks if it was natural. We just recreated a pandemic flu strain that has similar behavior not long ago, by blending a cytokinetic storm virus, the Spanish flu, with other flus.
No.
The Swine Flu is a natural mutation of forms of previous human, swine, and avian flus. It is not uncommon to find the avian flu in pigs in certain regions of the world. There are some areas of the world in which up to half of the symptom free pigs test positive for the avian flu. This is true of some regions of the Philippines, where the 2007 swine flu outbreak occurred. It happens when pigs, birds such as ducks and geese, and humans are all living in crowded places together such as small farming villages, especially in Asian countries where many families survive from husbandry of these animals.
Maybe.
The last couple outbreaks of similar prototypes and behaviors occurred around government and research bases.
NO.
There is no evidence to support that and it is very unlikely. Viruses mutate all the time, it is the nature of viral strains to change. It is also common nowadays, because of over-crowding the animals, for new strains of flu to develop among pigs and birds that can infect humans. This particular strain merged two strains of swine flu (pig flu), and Avian flu (bird flu) with human flu viruses. That is what makes it a new strain of virus like none in the past and why we are all more susceptible to infection from it. With our world getting smaller and population on the move more, going from country to country, it has long been thought (and planned for) a virus with the ability to spread quickly like this one could become a pandemic.
NO.
There is nothing more sinister at play than nature doing what nature has always done.

No, Swine Flu is just one strain of the many flu viruses. Flu is an abbreviation for influenza. So Swine Flu is a type of flu, but all flu is not the swine flu, there are other kinds.

The swine flu is PURPLE. :]
It was a swine that got swine flu first.See the related question below for information about the first person with swine flu.
Swine flu is a flu very similar to the regular flu. Tamiflu is a medicine that you take when you have swine flu or other types of influenza.
Just because your child has the swine flu, doesn't mean you do. Your child could get the swine flu even if you don't have it currently.
