The concern for the health of the 88-year-old and for around two weeks in the Hospital Pope Fanziskus has grown. As the Vatican announced in the evening, the Holy Father suffered two more “episodes of acute respiratory insufficiency”. These occur when the body can no longer cover the oxygen requirement. They were “caused by a significant accumulation of endobronchial mucus and a resulting bronchospasm,” said the bulletin published by the Vatican on Monday evening.
