The Vatican says Pope Francis will be hospitalized for several days for treatment of a pulmonary infection after experiencing difficulty breathing in recent days.
The hospitalization was the first since Francis spent 10 days at the Gemelli in July 2021 to have 33 centimeters of his colon removed.
Bruni said Francis had been suffering breathing troubles in recent days and went to the Gemelli hospital for tests. Francis appeared in relatively good form during his regularly scheduled general audience earlier Wednesday, though he grimaced strongly while getting in and out of the “popemobile.”, and he often speaks in a whisper. But he got through the worst phases of the COVID-19 pandemic without at least any public word of ever testing positive.
