Did astronaut Jack Swigert of Apollo 13 die in 1982 due to STD?

I remember from the true story movie starring Tom Hanks where astronaut Jack Swigert inadvertently gives STD to fellow astronaut Fred Haise by accidentally sharing the portable space urinal.

Also I found that Jack Swigert died in 1982 and the others still survives and was wondering if Jack died early because of complication of STD. If so, why didn’t Fred who got the STD from Jack die?

Swigert died of bone cancer. I did not see the movie. It is nearly impossible to get an STD from a toilet seat and I could find no reference, even at snopes.com, of anything like that.
