This Research Communication set out to (1) evaluate the behaviour and performance of dairy calves raised on pasture individually or in groups, and (2) evaluate the influence of physical enrichment on the behaviour and performance of dairy calves raised in groups on pasture.

Additionaly, calves housed individually spend part of their time trying to get close to a neighbouring calf.

Background: Little is known about the effect of hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment on sexual risk behavior among men who have sex with men (MSM) with HIV by treatment type (interferon [IFN]-based vs direct-acting antiviral [DAA]-based).
Setting: MSM with HIV and recently acquired HCV infection enrolled in the MSM Observational Study of Acute Infection with hepatitis C (MOSAIC) cohort.
Methods: Using data from 2009 to 2018, we evaluated risk behavior through a validated HCV risk score (where ≥2 indicated high risk) and its individual risk behaviors.
