“They have rehearsed his funeral” – Pope Francis remains extremely sick in hospital in Rome




Pope Francis is remains hospitalised for a respiratory infection, which has led to symptoms like fever and difficulty breathing, indicative of a significant health issue.

His condition is described as stable, and his fever has subsided, which suggests improvement. He’s being treated for bronchitis, and while his age and medical history (including previous lung surgery and other health issues) add complexity to his situation, the Vatican has reported that his health is under control with the current medical interventions.

Insiders claim that they have rehearsed the Pontiff’s funeral, but indications remain hopeful that it will not happen in the immediate future. Top medics are by his bedside.

Pope Francis is currently in Rome’s Agostino Gemelli Hospital and was visited this afternoon by the Italian Prime Minister.
