The Swine Flu has a much higher Death Rate than regular flu. Until a few months back the swine flu had a very high mortality rate. The medical developments have brought down the mortality rate but still there are rare cases of mortality because of swine flu.

The regular flu on the other hand does not have a known profound mortality rate. The cases of deaths because of regular flu are very rare and not very common. In case of patients who contract any other infection like Hepatitis or any other infection along with a flu, the chances of mortality are high.
