Le souverain pontife a passé la nuit de mercredi à jeudi avec un masque à oxygène.
Pope Francis, hospitalized in Rome for nearly three weeks with pneumonia, thanked the faithful in an audio message. His condition is stable, blood tests are normal, and he has no fever, but doctors remain cautious. The Vatican will release the next medical bulletin on Saturday instead of Friday due to his stable condition. He has missed three Angelus prayers, and a cardinal will replace him for the first Sunday of Lent mass. He alternates rest, prayer, work, and physiotherapy. He had two episodes of acute respiratory failure. His hospitalization, the longest of his pontificate, has caused uncertainty at the Vatican. This follows previous health issues, raising questions about his ability to continue and speculation about his resignation.
