Sky News interrupted its Monday morning broadcast to issue an urgent update on Pope Francis’s health, as concerns over the 88-year-old pontiff’s condition continue. Host Leah Boleto delivered the news live, stating: “The Vatican says the Pope ‘slept well all night’ after an isolated breathing crisis which happened on Friday. The 88-year-old has been in the hospital for two weeks and remains in a stable but complex condition.”
Doctors have reassured the public that Pope Francis is not suffering from a fever and that his condition remains stable, though they cautioned that he is “not out of danger.” According to medical reports, the Pope is now off mechanical ventilation and has shown no signs of new infection. He had previously been using a non-invasive ventilation mask to assist his breathing following a coughing episode on Friday. However, doctors confirmed that he spent all of Sunday without it, a positive sign of recovery, reported Daily Express.
