00:20This weekend, the Holy See Press Office said that Pope Francis is still in a critical condition.
00:24This means that his condition is in danger while he is confined in Gemelli Hospital in Rome.
00:29In the last bulletin from the Vatican, the Holy Father experienced an Asthma Respiratory Crisis.
00:35Because of this, he needs high-flow oxygen.
00:38His platelet count also went out of the blood test, so he also needed saline for his blood.
00:44It was also said in his prognosis that he felt more fatigue while in his armchair.
00:49Yesterday was also the second time that Pope Francis did not prioritize the traditional Sunday Angelus in St. Peter's Square.
00:56Luis Antonio Cardinal Tagle called for prayer for the recovery of the Holy Father.
01:00This was done by the Filipino Cardinal in his homily.
01:03This Sunday, we also pray in a special way for Pope Francis in the spirit of communion
01:13and as the Gospel states, so that we could be vessels of God's compassion to him
01:21and to many other people who are suffering from sickness.
01:25In a post, Pope Francis said that he is confident that he is continuing his treatment.
01:30He also thanked those who sent messages, such as letters and drawings of children.
01:35The Vatican is now doubting the spread of the news that the Holy Father passed away due to his condition.
01:41The Secretary of State of the Vatican said that this unverified report is normal in this situation.
