On Saturday, the Vatican released another medical update on the health of Pope Francis.
The Vatican confirmed that Pope Francis is showing signs of improvement as he continues treatment for double pneumonia at Rome’s Gemelli Hospital.
According to the statement, the 88-year-old pontiff is "responding well" to treatment, with his general condition gradually improving.
"The clinical condition of the Holy Father in recent days has remained stable and indicates a good response to treatment," the Vatican reported. Doctors confirmed that Pope Francis no longer has a fever, and his blood test results remain stable.
Although physicians have observed "a gradual, slight improvement" in his health, they remain cautious about his prognosis, emphasizing the need for ongoing monitoring to ensure these positive developments continue. The Vatican has not provided a timeline for his recovery or discharge.
