The symptoms of swine flu are similar to the symptoms of other seasonal types of influenza virus, including:
Runny nose
Sore throat
Body aches
Headache
Chills
Fever
Fatigue
Nausea
Vomiting
Diarrhea
Sometimes, pneumonia or respiratory failure
Worsening of existing physical conditions
People with swine flu might be slightly more likely to experience the gastrointestinal symptoms (vomiting, etc.) than people with the usual forms of the flu.
