Mae lleihau y cyfnod hunan\-ynysu i ddeng niwrnod yn cael ei gymeradwyo gan Brif Swyddog Meddygol Cymru, Dr Frank Atherton, ac mae’n seiliedig ar y dystiolaeth sydd ar gael ar hyn o bryd ynghylch y tebygolrwydd o fod yn heintus fel cyswllt ar ôl deng niwrnod.  


Yn dilyn y cyngor hwn, mae’r Gweinidog Iechyd a Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol wedi newid Rheoliadau Diogelu Iechyd (Cyfyngiadau Coronafeirws) (Rhif 4\) (Cymru) 2020\.


Caiff teithwyr sy’n dychwelyd o wledydd nad ydynt wedi’u heithrio eu gosod dan gwarantin am ddeng niwrnod, yn hytrach na 14, fel rhan o’r newidiadau i’r Rheoliadau Diogelu Iechyd (Coronafeirws, Teithio Rhyngwladol) (Cymru) 2020\.


Ar hyn o bryd, mae’n ofynnol yn ôl y gyfraith i bobl sydd mewn cysylltiad â phobl sydd â’r coronafeirws, a theithwyr sy’n dychwelyd o wledydd nad ydynt wedi’u heithrio, i hunan\-ynysu am gyfnod o 14 niwrnod – os nad ydynt yn profi’n bositif wedi hynny, ac yna byddai’n rhaid iddynt huan\-ynysu am gyfnod o 10 niwrnod o ddyddiad y prawf positif. 


Bydd y cyngor newydd ar hunan\-ynysu a’r cwarantin yn berthnasol i: 


* bobl sydd wedi derbyn canlyniad positif i brawf COVID\-19
* pobl sydd â symptomau COVID\-19 sy’n aros am ganlyniad prawf, neu sydd heb eu profi, ac nad oes yn rhaid iddynt dderbyn triniaeth yn yr ysbyty, sy’n gorfod aros gartref am y cyfnod hunan\-ynysu priodol
* pobl sy’n byw ar aelwydydd gyda rhywun sy’n dangos symptomau allai fod wedi eu hachosi gan COVID\-19, neu sydd wedi derbyn canlyniad positif am brawf COVID\-19
* cysylltiadau agos achosion positif o COVID\-19
* Teithwyr sy’n dychwelyd o wlad sydd heb ei heithrio


Meddai Vaughan Gething, y Gweinidog Iechyd a Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol:



> Rydyn ni’n gwybod bod hunan\-ynysu yn anodd i bobl, ac rydyn ni’n credu y bydd teuluoedd, cymunedau a busnesau yn croesawu’r cyhoeddiad heddiw i leihau y cyfnod y mae’n rhaid i bobl hunan\-ynys yn ddiogel. 
> 
> 
> Mae hunan\-ynysu a cwarantin yn chwarae rhan allweddol wrth atal y coronafeirws rhag lledaenu, a dwi am ddiolch i bawb sy’n parhau i ddilyn y rheolau ac yn chwarae eu rhan i Ddiogelu Cymru.







Translation:


 
Reducing the isolation period to 10 days is endorsed by The Chief Medical Officer for Wales Officer, Dr Frank Atherton and is based on the current available evidence around likelihood of being infectious as a contact after 10 days.


Following this advice the Minister for Health and Social Services has approved the amendment to the Health Protection (Coronavirus Restrictions) (No. 4\) (Wales) Regulations 2020\.


Travellers returning from non\-exempt countries will now only have to quarantine for 10 days instead of 14 as part of changes to the Health Protection (Coronavirus, International Travel) (Wales) Regulations 2020\).


At present, individuals who are contacts of people who have coronavirus and returning travellers from non\-exempt countries, are required by law to self\-isolate for a period of 14 days \- unless they subsequently test positive and are then required to isolate for a period of 10 days from the date of the positive test.


The new self\-isolation and quarantine advice will apply to:


* people who have received a positive test result for COVID\-19
* people with symptoms of COVID\-19 who are waiting for a test result, or who have not been tested and do not require hospital treatment, who must remain at home for the appropriate self\-isolation period
* people living in households with someone who shows symptoms that may be caused by COVID\-19 or who has received a positive test result for COVID\-19
* close contacts of positive cases of COVID\-19
* travellers returning from non\-exempt country


Minister for Health and Social Services, Vaughan Gething, said:



> We know that self\-isolating is hard for people and we believe families, communities and business will welcome the announcement today to safely reduce the days in which people have to isolate.
> 
> 
> Self\-isolation and quarantine play a key role in stopping the spread of the coronavirus and I want to thank everyone who continues to follow the rules and play their role in Keeping Wales Safe.
