The Vatican has extended Pope Francis' hospital stay indefinitely due to a complex respiratory infection, requiring a modified treatment plan. His admission last Friday for persistent bronchitis led to the cancellation of events, including the Jubilee Year events and the February 19 general audience. Further cancellations suggest a prolonged stay. Pope Francis, 88, has a history of respiratory issues, including a 2023 hospitalization and past lung surgery. Despite health challenges, he maintains an active schedule, recently completing a 12-day Asian tour.
