Drwy ein cyd-ymdrechion a'n cydweithrediad parhaus â’r diwydiant ac â milfeddygon, rydym yn parhau i gael ein calonogi gan yr ystadegau TB diweddaraf.  Yn y 12 mis hyd at fis Awst 2020, gwelsom ostyngiad o 10% yn yr achosion newydd o TB o'i gymharu â'r 12 mis blaenorol, y 26ainmis o’r bron lle cafwyd gostyngiad ym mharamedrau’r clefyd. Yn ystod 2019, cafwyd 5.8 o fuchesi ag achosion newydd fesul bob 100 o fuchesi â Statws Heb TB Swyddogol, sef y lefel flynyddol isaf o fuchesi ag achosion newydd ers 15 mlynedd. Mae'n bleser gennyf ddatgan inni weld y duedd hon yn parhau yn 2020 gyda'r lefel chwarterol isaf o fuchesi ag achosion newydd wedi’i chofnodi yn Chwarter 1 eleni.
Through our collective efforts and ongoing co-operation with industry and vets, we continue to be encouraged by the latest TB statistics.  In the 12 months to August 2020, we saw a 10% decrease in new TB incidents compared with the previous 12 months, the 26thconsecutive month there has been a decrease in this disease parameter. During 2019, there were 5.8 new herd incidents per 100 Officially TB Free herd tests, which is the lowest annual level of herd incidence for 15 years. I am pleased to report we have seen this trend continue into 2020 with the lowest quarterly level of herd incidence reported in Quarter 1 of this year.
