On February 28, 2025, Pope Francis, aged 88, experienced a severe coughing fit leading to the inhalation of vomit, which necessitated non-invasive mechanical ventilation to support his breathing. This incident occurred during his two-week hospitalization at Rome's Gemelli Hospital, where he is being treated for double pneumonia. Despite the setback, the Vatican reports that the Pope remains conscious and alert, though his overall prognosis remains cautious due to the complexity of his condition. Doctors are closely monitoring him for potential complications, including sepsis. The Pope continues to work from the hospital, with global prayers dedicated to his recovery.
