Pope Francis has been admitted since this afternoon to the Gemelli hospital in Rome due to scheduled controls, according to the Vatican press office; although the Italian media have published that late in the morning he presented “respiratory difficulties” and was taken by ambulance to undergo tests.
In a brief message, the Vatican has only communicated that the Argentine pontiff is in the hospital “for previously scheduled controls”, but has not mentioned any reason.
For its part, the newspaper Corriere della Serahas explained that it would be “heart problems and shortness of breath” but he assures that the situation for the moment “is not worrisome.”
After the traditional audience on Wednesdays, the Pope suffered a alarming respiratory distress diagnosed by Vatican doctors, according to what he points out Il Messaggero.
Subsequently, the Vatican press office has acknowledged that the pope is suffering from a respiratory infection “that will require a few days of hospital medical treatment adequate”. “In recent days, Pope Francis had been suffering from some respiratory difficulties and this afternoon he went to the A. Gemelli Polyclinic for medical check-ups,” the note added.
For now the pope’s agenda for the next two days has been canceled so that the necessary controls can be carried out.
