Pope follows without fever and is in a stable condition, says Vatican Bulletin

The Holy Father rested and participated in activities. He received the Eucharist in the morning and participated in prayers in the chapel of his apartment. In the afternoon, he interspersed the rest and work activities.

Francisco has been hospitalized for three weeks with bilateral pneumonia. Pontiff’s health has alternated between worse and light improvements, but in recent days it has not had new paintings of respiratory failure, nor had a fever.

The Pope has been going through his longest hospitalization since he took office at the Vatican in 2013. It is the fourth hospitalization during the papacy. Last time he had been hospitalized for three days because of a bronchitis. Last year, Francisco alarmed the church after suffering a series of falls. In 2021 he was ten days old to undergo gut surgery.

In a voice message, Holy Father thanked the prayers received. The small audio, published by the Vatican, shows Francisco with a tired and tired voice, but granting blessings to the faithful.

Thank you with all your heart for the prayers you say for my health made in the square, I accompany you from here. May God bless you and may the Virgin take care of them. Thanks. Pope Francis
