Pope Francis Shows Signs of Improvement During Extended Hospital Stay

The 88-year-old pontiff remains in stable condition as he continues treatment for double pneumonia, with his prognosis still reserved.

Pope Francis, hospitalized since February 14 for double pneumonia, has shown a stable response to treatment, according to the Vatican.
The Vatican reported that the pope passed several calm nights and has not experienced respiratory crises in recent days.
Despite his improving condition, the pope remains in a complex clinical state, requiring oxygen therapy during the day and non-invasive ventilation at night.
For the fourth consecutive week, he has been unable to deliver the Angelus prayer in person, instead releasing written or recorded messages to his followers.
The Vatican plans to release the next health update on Monday, as doctors continue to monitor his gradual progress.
