English: Our approach emphasises that vaccination continues to offer the best protection from COVID-19 and flu. For those who are eligible to be vaccinated, getting vaccinated is the most important action that they can take to protect themselves and others. Our winter respiratory vaccination programme was launched on 1 September and, to date, over 360,000 COVID-19 vaccines have been given. Our advice and approach will continue to focus on enabling and promoting individual behaviours to protect themselves, to protect each other and, particularly, to protect the more vulnerable. This has to be done because this can have significant benefits in terms of reducing transmission of respiratory viruses. We should all now be familiar with these protective behaviours, which include staying at home if you're unwell and wearing a face covering in crowded indoor places and health and social care settings. We've also included targeted advice for those working in key settings, such as health, social care, prisons and education settings. Another key element of our approach to respiratory viruses is how we can protect people who are at high risk of becoming severely ill as a result of COVID-19. We've set out advice for those who are eligible for treatment with antiviral or antibody therapies, including eligibility criteria and how treatment can be accessed. Our testing approach is also now targeted to protect the most vulnerable. This will help to inform the surveillance process, will support outbreaks, and will help to plan for a potential wave in cases of the virus and a COVID-urgent scenario. We continue to provide tests for symptomatic patients, health and care staff, prisoners, and care home residents. For the winter, we are also providing additional multiplex testing within several settings. These tests can diagnose other respiratory viruses apart from COVID-19, and can ensure that the appropriate treatment and protective measures are put in place. Our planned communications campaigns will focus on daily protective behaviours that everyone can implement to prevent the spread of respiratory viruses, in order to protect those people who are most at risk. The messaging will be sensitive to the increased cost of living, and they will focus on behaviours that are easy and simple for everyone to maintain and will help us respond to the challenges during the winter months. Thank you very much.
Welsh: Mae ein dull gweithredu yn pwysleisio mai brechu sy'n dal i gynnig yr amddiffyniad gorau rhag COVID-19 a'r ffliw. I'r rhai sy'n gymwys i gael eu brechu, dyna yw'r cam pwysicaf y gallan nhw ei gymryd i ddiogelu eu hunain ac eraill. Cafodd ein rhaglen frechu gaeaf yn erbyn firysau anadlol ei lansio ar 1 Medi ac, hyd yma, mae dros 360,000 o frechiadau COVID-19 wedi cael eu rhoi. Yn ein cyngor a'n dull gweithredu, byddwn yn parhau i ganolbwyntio ar alluogi ac annog ymddygiadau gan unigolion i ddiogelu eu hunain, diogelu ein gilydd ac, yn enwedig, i ddiogelu'r rhai mwyaf agored i niwed. Mae angen gwneud hyn oherwydd bod hyn yn gallu cael budd sylweddol o ran lleihau trosglwyddiad firysau anadlol. Dylen ni i gyd, erbyn hyn, fod yn gyfarwydd â'r mesurau amddiffyn hyn, sy'n cynnwys aros adref os ŷch chi'n sâl a gwisgo gorchudd wyneb mewn llefydd llawn dan do ac mewn lleoliadau iechyd a gofal cymdeithasol. Rŷn ni hefyd wedi cynnwys cyngor wedi'i dargedu ar gyfer pobl sy'n gweithio mewn lleoliadau allweddol fel iechyd, gofal cymdeithasol, carchardai ac addysg. Elfen allweddol arall o'n dull o ymdrin â feirysau anadl yw sut y gallwn ni amddiffyn pobl sydd â risg uchel o fynd yn ddifrifol wael oherwydd COVID-19. Rŷn ni wedi amlinellu cyngor i'r rhai sy'n gymwys i gael eu trin gyda therapi gwrthfeirysol neu therapi gwrthgyrff, gan gynnwys y meini prawf cymhwysedd a sut i gael mynediad at driniaeth. Mae ein dull profi yn cael ei dargedu bellach hefyd, i ddiogelu'r rhai mwyaf agored i niwed. Bydd e'n helpu'r broses wyliadwriaeth, yn rhoi cefnogaeth os bydd achosion lluosog, ac yn helpu cynllunio ar gyfer ton posibl o'r feirws a senario COVID brys. Rŷn ni'n parhau i ddarparu profion ar gyfer cleifion symptomatig, staff iechyd a gofal, carcharorion, a phreswylwyr cartrefi gofal. Ar gyfer y gaeaf, rŷn ni hefyd yn darparu mwy o brofion aml-ddadansoddiad, sef multiplex testing, mewn sawl lleoliad. Mae'r profion hyn yn gallu rhoi diagnosis o feirysau anadlol eraill heblaw am COVID-19, a sicrhau bod triniaeth addas a mesurau amddiffyn yn cael eu rhoi ar waith. Bydd ein hymgyrchoedd cyfathrebu yn canolbwyntio ar yr arferion amddiffynnol y gall pawb eu dilyn bob dydd i atal feirysau anadl rhag lledaenu, er mwyn diogelu'r bobl sydd yn wynebu'r risg fwyaf. Bydd y negeseuon yn sensitif i'r cynnydd mewn costau byw, ac fe fyddan nhw'n canolbwyntio ar arferion sy'n hawdd ac yn syml i bawb gadw atynt ac yn ein helpu i ymateb i'r heriau fydd i ddod yn ystod y gaeaf yma. Diolch.
