Pope Francis has a “polymicrobial infection” of his respiratory tract that will require his treatment in hospital to be changed, the Vatican said Monday, with tests indicating a “complex clinical picture.”
The 88-year-old pontiff was checked into a hospital in Rome for “diagnostic tests” relating to a respiratory tract infection, according to the Vatican. They later confirmed he was in Agostino Gemelli Polyclinic in the Italian capital – and had canceled his meetings for the next three days.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
