Respiratory Syncytial Virus

 

Protect yourself from Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV)

Oeddech chi'n gwybod? Wrth i chi fynd yn hyn, mae eich risg o gael salwch difrifol o RSV yn cynyddu.

Did you know? As you get older, your risk of serious illness from RSV increases.

 

Each year, up to 1000 people aged over 75 need hospital care due to RSV – a common virus affecting the airways and lungs. 

The RSV vaccine could help protect you from serious illness if you are:

  • turning 75 on or after 1 September 2024, or
  • already aged 75 to 79 on 1 September 2024.

Don’t miss out!

Please get your RSV vaccine as soon as you receive your invitation.

To find out more, visit the Wales NHS website or speak to a healthcare provider.

Bob blwyddyn, mae angen gofal ysbyty ar hyd at 1000 o bobl dros 75 oed oherwydd RSV - feirws cyffredin sy’n effeithio ar y llwybrau anadlu a’r ysgyfaint. 

Gallai’r brechlyn RSV helpu i’ch amddiffyn rhag cael salwch difrifol os ydych chi:

  • yn troi’n 75 oed ar 1 Medi 2024 neu ar ôl hynny, neu
  • eisoes yn 75 i 79 oed ar 1 Medi 2024.

Peidiwch â cholli allan!

Mynnwch eich brechlyn RSV cyn gynted ag y byddwch yn derbyn eich gwahoddiad.
