Last week saw the vaccine roll out gathering pace, which is exciting news for those receiving the vaccine and provides some much-needed positive news for the rest of us. Local Age UKs have reported that they are receiving calls from older people who are worried about how they will receive their vaccine and whether they have to travel to a mass vaccine centre which may be challenging for some of them.
Age UK have written a useful blog on what communications older people should expect to receive from the NHS, what choices they have on where to receive their vaccine and how to spot a scam. The blog includes:
- Which vaccine will I get?
- Where will I get the vaccine?
- How will I be contacted?
- Things to watch out for
Yr wythnos ddiwethaf gwelwyd y broses frechu yn cyflymu, sy’n newyddion cyffrous i’r rhai hynny a dderbyniodd y brechlyn ac mae’n darparu newyddion cadarnhaol sydd fawr ei angen ar gyfer y gweddill ohonom. Mae canghennau lleol o Age UK wedi adrodd eu bod yn derbyn galwadau gan bobl hŷn sy’n poeni ynglŷn â sut y byddan nhw’n derbyn eu brechlyn ac a fydd yn rhaid iddyn nhw deithio i ganolfan frechu dorfol a all fod yn heriol i rai ohonyn nhw.
Mae Age UK wedi ysgrifennu blog defnyddiol ynglŷn â pha ohebiaeth y dylai pobl hŷn ddisgwyl ei derbyn gan y GIG, pa ddewisiadau sydd ganddyn nhw ynglŷn â lle i dderbyn eu brechlyn a sut i adnabod twyll. Mae’r blog yn cynnwys:
- Pa frechlyn fyddaf yn ei gael?
- Lle byddaf yn cael y brechlyn?
- Sut y cysylltir â mi?
- Pethau i’w gwylio
