Pope Francis was reportedly experiencing heart and breathing problems after his general audience on Wednesday.
VATICAN CITY (LifeSiteNews) — Pope Francis has been admitted today to Rome’s Gemelli hospital for “previously scheduled tests,” as news outlets now report that his scheduled has been cleared for the upcoming days after he experienced heart problems prior to arriving at the hospital.
In a brief statement issued to the press March 29, Vatican spokesman Matteo Bruni stated that “The Holy Father has been at Gemelli since this afternoon for some previously scheduled checkups.”
The Pontiff had conducted his regular general audience in the morning, being visibly less physically able than he had appeared in recent days.
Following this, however, Italian news outlets began reporting that the Pope’s scheduled meetings for the next few days had been cancelled, citing a Vatican source.
After the audience, he reportedly had to cancel a scheduled interview and be transported to the nearby Gemelli hospital in an ambulance. According to the news reports, which cited sources in the hospital, Francis was suffering from “heart problems” along with breathing issues when he arrived.
His condition is currently deemed as “not worrisome” according to Corriere della Sera.
Pope Francis is understood to be remaining in the hospital overnight, with close staff also spending the night in the hospital.
In a statement issued at 8:30 p.m. Rome time, Bruni stated that “in recent days Pope Francis complained of some respiratory difficulties and this afternoon he went to Policlinico A. Gemelli to undergo some medical checks. The outcome of these showed a respiratory infection (excluding Covid 19 infection) that will require a few days of appropriate hospital medical treatment.”

Three sizes too small...
hopefully he wont recover and the world might get a chance to fix the mistake of picking a ungodly socialist pope
The same folks who voted for him, will vote for the next one, so I wouldn’t get my hopes up.
There’s the old saying that the Pope is fine, until he’s dead.
The Vatican used to never reveal anything about a Pope’s health until pretty much the end.
Malachy’s final prediction in full is: “In the final persecution of the Holy Roman Church there will reign Peter the Roman, who will feed his flock amid many tribulations, after which the seven-hilled city will be destroyed and the dreadful Judge will judge the people. The End.”
“Heart issues”, as in “couldn’t find one”?
