Mae'r datganiad hwn yn ddarlun noeth o'r her sy'n wynebu'r gwasanaeth iechyd. Fodd bynnag, mae'n bwysig rhannu'r wybodaeth yn dilyn fy natganiad llafar ddoe er mwyn helpu i gyfleu'r pwysau penodol a reolir. Adlewyrcha system sy'n rheoli'r adeg fwyaf critigol o'r flwyddyn â mwy na 2600 yn llai o welyau na'r arfer, a 119 yn llai o welyau ICU na'r arfer, am fod cleifion sydd â COVID-19 eu hangen, ac felly nad ydynt ar gael i ddelio â'r pwysau arferol a welir dros y gaeaf.  Mae'r Gwasanaeth Iechyd yn gorfod addasu yn ystod y cyfnod anodd hwn drwy leihau gweithgareddau eraill a chyfyngu ar fynediad. Dros yr wythnosau nesaf bydd angen ateb heriau nas gwelwyd erioed o'r blaen, ac mae pawb yn gwneud eu gorau glas i wneud hynny.
This statement provides an honest picture of the scale and significance of the challenge we face across our NHS. However it is important to share following my oral statement yesterday to help describe the specific pressures that are being managed. It reflects a system that is managing its most critical period of the year with over 2600 less beds than normal and with 119 less ICU beds available than would normally be the case, as they are occupied by covid patients and are therefore not available to support our usual winter pressures activity.  The NHS is having to adapt during this intense period by reducing other activities and limiting access. The coming weeks present genuinely unprecedented challenges and no effort is being spared to combat them.
