Bob gaeaf, rydym hefyd yn gweld mwy o achosion o norofeirws – sy’n cael ei alw hefyd yn glefyd chwydu’r gaeaf – ar led yn y gymuned. Bu’n rhaid cau nifer o wardiau ar draws Cymru er mwyn ceisio atal yr haint rhag lledaenu. Wrth reswm, effeithiodd hyn ar wasanaethau hefyd, gan ychwanegu at y pwysau difrifol ar y GIG.
Every winter we also see an increase in norovirus – which is also known as the winter vomiting disease – circulating in the community. A number of wards had to be closed across Wales to limit the spread of infection. This of course also had an impact on services and added to the severe pressure the NHS has been under.
