During a briefing on the Pope’s health, the Press Office conveyed that Pope Francis continues to show clinical improvements as he recovers at his residence in the Casa Santa Marta, following his hospitalization for a polymicrobial infection that resulted in bilateral pneumonia.
The Holy Father was released from Rome’s Gemelli Hospital with “protected discharge” on Sunday, 23 March.
Pope Francis’ condition has shown further slight respiratory, mobility, and voice-related improvements, and blood tests are good, noted the Press Office.
