“Due to a feverish state, the Pope has not had audiences this morning”explained the Vatican spokesman, Matteo Bruniwithout giving more details.

This morning the traditional agenda of Pope Francis was not sent to the media and it was only later learned that it had been suspended.

On Thursday afternoon, the pope had attended an act of the foundation in good shape Scholas with Latin American mayors and other personalities, while in the morning he had received the Italian bishops, gathered in assembly.

“The Pope was tired, yesterday he had a very intense day”the Vatican Secretary of State later said, Pietro Parolínon the sidelines of a meeting at the Italian embassy before the Holy See, quoted by local media.

The cardinal explained that this Thursday Francis “saw a lot of people and, in the meeting of Occurring Scholas wanted to greet everyone. At a certain moment, the resistance fails”, according to the same sources.

This afternoon, in addition, the press office of the Holy See confirmed that next Monday morning the Pope will present the Paul VI Award to the President of the Italian Republic, Sergio Mattarella.

Francisco was admitted at the end of March to the Gemelli hospital in Rome by “acute pneumonia”as he explained during the return flight from his trip to Hungary.

“What I’ve had is that I felt bad after the hearing, I didn’t want to eat and I went to sleep, but I didn’t lose consciousness, I just had a high fever,” explained the Pope when asked about the reasons for his three-day hospitalization in the Gemelli Polyclinic in Rome.

And added: “But the body has reacted well to the treatment”Francisco added to the journalists on the plane, who left after three days hospitalized and continued with his busy schedule, even during Holy Week.

During his admission to the hospital, the Vatican explained that Francisco suffered from infectious-based bronchitis, for which he was given an intravenous infusion of antibiotics and from the first day he was hospitalized his health registered a “improvement”.

This was the second time that Francisco was admitted to the Gemelli. The first took place on July 4, 2021when he was operated on colon and was hospitalized for ten days.

Since then, the pope has also suffered a problem in his right knee that forces him to walk with a cane or a wheelchair and has assured on several occasions that he does not want to operate.
