Pope responds to treatment and has gradual improvement, says Vatican

Pope Francis is responding “well” to double pneumonia therapy and has presented a “gradual and light improvement” in recent days, the Vatican said on Saturday, 8. But as a precaution, doctors decided to maintain the prognosis confidential.

Francisco remained stable, without fever and with good levels of oxygen in the blood, doctors reported in a Vatican statement.

He worked and rested during the day, the professionals added.
