Pope Francis hospitalised with respiratory infection ahead of Easter

abc.net.au/news/pope-francis-is-in-hospital-with-respiratory-infection/102163362Pope Francis has a respiratory infection and will need to spend "a few days" in hospital for treatment, according to a Vatican statement.Earlier, the pope attended his weekly general audience at the Vatican and had appeared in good health

"Pope Francis is touched by the many messages received and expresses his gratitude for the closeness and prayer," the Vatican said.The Vatican initially said the check-up had been scheduled, but Italian media questioned that, saying a television interview with the pope set for Wednesday afternoon had been cancelled at the last moment.

He said in January that the condition had returned and that it was causing him to put on weight, but that he was not overly concerned. He did not elaborate. Last July, returning from a trip to Canada, Francis acknowledged that his advancing age and his difficulty walking might have ushered in a new, slower phase of his papacy.

Not Covid then 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Is it disrespectful to suggest he'll be back in 3 days?

🥱 slow news day?

attending that hardcore gig probly didn’t help 🥴

Is that why he was wearing the puffy jacket? Stay warm popey.

Bad timing.
