Pope Francis had another “peaceful night” at the Gemelli Hospital in Rome and rested on Wednesday morning while continuing to receive treatment for double pneumonia, said the Vatican.
The Holy See did not provide more updates on the condition of the 88 -year -old pontiff.
On Tuesday, the Vatican said that Francis continued to show a slight improvement, despite remaining in critical condition. He had resumed the work and was eating normally, added the Vatican.
Francis was admitted to the Gemelli hospital on February 14 and was then diagnosed with double pneumonia or pneumonia in both lungs. Additional computerized compassionate scans were ordered on Tuesday to monitor their lungs, while the Pope’s prognosis remained “reserved,” church officials said.
It was not clear if the Pontiff remained in critical condition on Wednesday, and the Holy See was expected to provide more updates.
Hundreds of people join a night mass in the Plaza de San Pedro to pray for the leader of the 1,400 million Catholics in the world.
