Yn sgil astudiaethau sy'n dangos cysylltiad cryf rhwng mynychder a difrifoldeb COVID-19 a diffygion fitamin D mewn cleifion, a yw Llywodraeth Cymru wedi ystyried cyflenwi neu wneud argymhelliad swyddogol i'r cyhoedd ynghylch defnyddio atchwanegiad fitamin D?

The Welsh Government already advises that people take a vitamin D supplement during winter months. This advice can be found at:

The Welsh Government is not aware of any robust evidence that vitamin D3 deficiency is a causal factor in the incidence or severity of COVID-19.

There are no intentions to provide vitamin D supplements to certain categories of people.
