We’ve already asked so much of everyone to help keep each other safe – diolch o galon for the sacrifices you've made.

The arrival of the omicron variant means we have to ask a little more.

Today I’ve set out some new steps we'll need to take to keep Wales safe.
From 26 December,

- The rule of 6 in pubs, cafes and restaurants.
- Additional measures, including table service, will be required in all licensed premises.
- A maximum of 30 people can attend indoor activities and 50 people max for outdoor activities.
The numbers at weddings, civil partnerships or wakes will be determined by venues and social distancing.

All guests should take a lateral flow test before they go.
Vaccination remains our best defence against this awful virus.

Boosters are vital to give us protection against omicron.

Please make getting your booster a priority this winter.
Thank you for everything you have done, and continue to do, to keep each other safe and to #KeepWalesSafe.

Rydyn ni eisoes wedi gofyn cymaint gan bawb i ddiogelu ein gilydd – diolch am yr aberth rydych chi wedi'i wneud.

Mae omicron yn golygu bod yn rhaid i ni ofyn ychydig mwy gennych.

Heddiw rwyf wedi nodi rhai camau newydd y bydd angen i ni eu cymryd i ddiogelu Cymru.
O 26 Rhagfyr,

- Dim mwy na 6 i gwrdd mewn tafarndai, caffis a bwytai.
- Mesurau ychwanegol, gan gynnwys gwasanaeth bwrdd, ym mhob safle trwyddedig.
- Uchafswm o 30 o bobl mewn gweithgareddau dan do a 50 o bobl mewn gweithgareddau awyr agored.
Bydd y niferoedd mewn priodas, partneriaeth sifil neu angladd yn cael eu pennu gan leoliadau a’r drefn pellter cymdeithasol.

Dylai pob gwestai gymryd prawf llif unffordd cyn mynd.

Y ddwy flynedd ddiwethaf fu'r anoddaf y gall llawer ohonom ei gofio.

Alla i ddim diolch digon i chi am yr aberth rydych chi wedi'i wneud.

Gallaf gadarnhau heddiw y bydd Cymru'n aros ar lefel rhybudd sero.
Mae'r amrywiolyn Omicron yn ddatblygiad sy'n peri pryder yn y pandemig hwn.

Mae’n lledaenu’n gyflym; mae ganddo botensial i heintio nifer fawr o bobl; mae’n achos pryder difrifol.Drwy gydol y pandemig, rydym wedi cyd-dynnu. Nawr mae angen inni wneud hynny eto.
Y brechlyn yw ein hamddiffyn gorau rhag y feirws difrifol hwn. Mae pigiad atgyfnerthu yn hanfodol – nid yw dau ddos yn ddigon yn erbyn Omicron.

Gwnewch cael pigiad atgyfnerthu yn flaenoriaeth y gaeaf hwn.

The past two years have been the toughest many of us can remember.

I can’t thank you enough for the sacrifices you have made.

I can confirm today that Wales will remain at alert level zero.
The omicron variant is a worrying development in this pandemic.

The speed it spreads and its potential to infect large numbers of people is a serious concern.

Throughout the pandemic, we've all pulled together. Now we need to do so again.
Vaccination is our best defence against this awful virus. Boosters are vital – two doses are not enough against omicron.

Please make getting your booster a priority this winter.

Thanks to your efforts, coronavirus rates remain relatively low in Wales, and more and more people are being fully vaccinated every day.

This means we can move to Alert Level 0 from 6am Saturday 7 August.

Further details ⬇️
There will be no limit on the number of people you can meet indoors or outdoors, including in private homes, public places or at events.

The few remaining businesses who were still required to be closed, including nightclubs, will be able to reopen.
You will no longer legally have to wear masks in hospitality settings where food and drink is being served.

But we still encourage you to wear them in those settings where this is practical.

Diolch i’ch ymdrechion chi, mae cyfraddau coronafeirws yn dal i fod yn gymharol isel yng Nghymru, ac mae mwy o bobl yn cael eu brechu’n llawn bob dydd.

Felly rydyn ni’n gallu symud i Lefel Rhybudd 0 o 6am ddydd Sadwrn 7 Awst.

Mwy o fanylion ⬇️
Ni fydd unrhyw gyfyngiad ar nifer y bobl y cewch gwrdd â nhw dan do nac yn yr awyr agored, gan gynnwys mewn cartrefi preifat, mannau cyhoeddus a digwyddiadau.

Bydd y nifer bach o fusnesau a oedd yn dal i orfod bod ar gau, gan gynnwys clybiau nôs, yn cael ailagor.
Ni fydd yn ofyniad cyfreithiol ichi wisgo masg mewn lleoliadau lletygarwch lle mae bwyd a diod yn cael eu gweini.

Ond rydyn ni’n dal i’ch annog i wisgo un yn y llefydd hynny pan fo’n ymarferol.

Thanks to your efforts, coronavirus rates remain relatively low in Wales, and more and more people are being fully vaccinated every day.

This means we can fully move to Alert Level 1 from Saturday 17 July.

Further details in the thread below ⬇️
From Saturday, up to six people can meet and organised indoor events can take place.

We will relax the restrictions around children’s residential activity centres and ice rinks will be able to reopen too.
Also from Saturday there will be no limit on the amount of people who can gather outdoors in Wales - and we will no longer have to social distance when outdoors.

We must stick to 6 people and keep our distance when indoors to reduce the risk.
