Pope Francis, 88, is currently resting at Rome's Gemelli Hospital following a respiratory crisis and blood transfusions, as reported by the Vatican on Sunday. The Pope, who had undergone surgery to remove part of one lung in the past, experienced a critical condition, according to doctors.
During his stay at the hospital, it is uncertain whether Pope Francis was awake and having breakfast. He faced a severe asthmatic respiratory crisis on Saturday while being treated for double pneumonia and a complex lung infection. To aid his breathing, he received high levels of oxygen and underwent blood transfusions due to low platelet counts necessary for clotting, as confirmed by the Vatican.
