Rwyf wedi cael cyngor terfynol gan y Cydbwyllgor Brechu ac Imiwneiddio (JCVI) am frechlynnau Covid\-19 i blant rhwng pump ac 11 oed nad ydynt yn cael eu hystyried fel plant sy’n wynebu risg glinigol.


Mae plant yn y grŵp oedran hwn sy'n cael eu dosbarthu fel rhai sy’n wynebu risg glinigol eisoes yn cael cynnig y brechlyn ac mae mwy nag un o bob pedwar eisoes wedi manteisio ar y cynnig.


Bydd cyngor y JCVI yn cael ei gyhoeddi maes o law. Rwyf wedi derbyn y cyngor hwn ac yn diolch i’r JCVI am graffu ar y wyddoniaeth a’r dystiolaeth ac am ddatgan ei gyngor mewn ffordd ofalus ac ystyriol. Ein bwriad, fel y mae wedi bod ers dechrau’r pandemig, yw dilyn y dystiolaeth glinigol a gwyddonol.


Wrth dderbyn y cyngor hwn, byddaf yn gofyn i’r byrddau iechyd ystyried mater tegwch yn ofalus o fewn eu cynllunio gweithredol. Byddwn yn gweithio’n agos gydag Iechyd Cyhoeddus Cymru a’r byrddau iechyd i sicrhau bod gwybodaeth ffeithiol a dibynadwy sy’n briodol i oedran ar gael am fanteision a risgiau posibl brechu ar gyfer yr ystod oedran hon.


Byddwn yn annog pob teulu sydd â phlant rhwng pump ac 11 oed, nad ydynt mewn unrhyw grwpiau risg glinigol, i fynd i wefan Iechyd Cyhoeddus Cymru i gael gwybodaeth am frechu ac i ddechrau sgwrs ynghylch a ydynt eisiau manteisio ar y cynnig hwn.  


Byddwn yn cyhoeddi diweddariad o’n Strategaeth Frechu yr wythnos nesaf, a fydd yn nodi rhagor o fanylion am y cynnig, unwaith y bydd cyngor y JCVI wedi’i gyhoeddi.


Brechu yw'r peth pwysicaf y gallwn ei wneud i amddiffyn ein hunain a'n plant rhag salwch. Mae’n atal hyd at dair miliwn o farwolaethau ledled y byd bob blwyddyn.


 







Translation:


 
I have received the Joint Committee for Vaccination and Immunisation’s (JCVI) final advice about Covid\-19 vaccination for children aged five to 11 who are not considered to be at clinical risk. 


Children in this age group who are classed as being at clinical risk are already being offered the vaccine and more than one in four have already taken up the offer of vaccination. 


The JCVI advice will be published in due course. I have accepted this advice and thank the JCVI for scrutinising the science and evidence and setting out its advice in a careful and considered way. Our intention, as it has been from the start of the pandemic, is to follow the clinical and scientific evidence.  


In accepting this advice, I will be asking the health boards to consider carefully the issue of equity within their operational planning. We will work closely with Public Health Wales and the health boards to ensure there is age\-appropriate factual and trusted information about the potential benefits and risks of vaccination for this age range.


I would encourage all families with children between the ages of five and 11, who are not in any clinical at risk groups, to visit the Public Health Wales website for information about vaccination and to begin a conversation about whether they want to take up this offer.


We will be publishing an update of our Vaccination Strategy next week, which will set out further detail about the offer, once the JCVI advice is published.


Vaccination is the most important thing we can do to protect ourselves and our children against ill health. They prevent up to three million deaths worldwide every year.
