*Pope Francis' Health Update: Responding to Treatment, but Caution Remains* During a press conference at Rome’s Gemelli hospital, the medical team looking after Pope Francis provided an update on his health. Dr. Sergio Alfieri and Dr. Luigi Carbone shared that while Pope Francis is not "in danger of death," he is also not fully "out of danger." The Pope is expected to remain hospitalized for at least another week, and although he is struggling with breathing, he is not on a ventilator. Despite his condition, Pope Francis has resumed working and maintains his usual sense of humor. The primary concern is the risk of sepsis due to germs in his respiratory tract entering his bloodstream. Dr. Alfieri expressed confidence that the Pope would eventually leave the hospital, but his chronic respiratory issues will persist.
