How to make the author field bold, including the conjunction "and" in Biblatex?

Question

I am using style = authoryear in Biblatex and I want to make all author names, including the conjunction "and" in bold. I have used the following commands

\renewcommand{\mkbibnamefirst}[1]{\textbf{#1}} 
\renewcommand{\mkbibnamelast}[1]{\textbf{#1}}

however this only makes the author names bold but not the "and" conjunction, so I get something like this

enter image description here

How can I make the "and" and the commas bold in the author field?

Seeing that you just copied the approach from the other answer, I would prefer to vote to close as a duplicate of Make author names bold in bibliography only. WOuld that be OK with you. — moewe, Jun 02 '15 at 06:01

    {\iffirstinits
       {\usebibmacro{name:last-first}{#1}{#4}{#5}{#7}}
       {\usebibmacro{name:last-first}{#1}{#3}{#5}{#7}}%
     \ifblank{#3#5}
       {}
       {\usebibmacro{name:revsdelim}}}
    {\iffirstinits
       {\usebibmacro{name:first-last}{#1}{#4}{#5}{#7}}
       {\usebibmacro{name:first-last}{#1}{#3}{#5}{#7}}}%
