4. Codes of Practice:
Ypip ,   Canada   (04.26.09)
Cdn. SPCA's recognize that farm animal welfare is an issue the organic industry has always taken very seriously. As such, their organic standards complement SPCA standards quite closely. Generally, this follows the Five Freedoms set out in the Brambell Report. This in turn became the Codes of practice which are readily available here: http://www.nfacc.ca/code.aspx

Poultry is kosher isn't it? That, however, didn't keep avian influenza out and we had to destroy entire stocks.
7. I don't understand something
D.C.   (04.26.09)
Honestly I don't really know why the hospitals are not trying the vaccine of the spanish flu, after spanish flu was the nick of the H1N1 back in 1917-18. Mankind is already encountered with this sort of virus before. What is the difference? H1N1 is H1N1.
8. why panic
observer   (04.26.09)
pigs do not die from the flu.
9. To number 6

Yes, but number 2 has a good point. Also, much of these polutry and cow diseases start at pig farms anyway.
