The so-called "Swine Flu", more correctly called 2009 H1N1 Pandemic Flu, is a variant of a common seasonal disease. This particular variation is significantly different from the usual in that it strikes the young disproportionately and more seriously. It is caused by a virus.
The Black Plague was probably Bubonic Plague and its related form Pneumonic Plague. It struck a completely unprepared population in Europe and it kills at a much higher rate. Although now readily treated with antibiotic, without treatment it can kill 25% or more of those infected, a much higher Death Rate than the flu has. It is caused by a bacteria, not by a virus.
