ROME — Pope Francis has seen a marked improvement in his health after receiving antibiotics for a bronchitis infection, the Vatican said Thursday.
This information came a day after the pope was hospitalized with breathing difficulties.
“Based on the expected progress (of his health), the Holy Father could be discharged in the coming days,” the statement said, quoting his medical team.
“Pope Francis spent the afternoon at Gemelli hospital devoting himself to rest, prayer, and some work,” the Vatican said.
