Pope Francis, 88, has suffered a serious health setback while battling double pneumonia, the Vatican confirmed. He experienced a coughing fit that led to inhaling vomit, causing a breathing crisis that required non-invasive mechanical ventilation. The Pope has been hospitalized for two weeks, and while he remains conscious and alert, his prognosis is being closely monitored. Vatican officials have not confirmed whether he will be able to resume his scheduled public appearances. His condition remains a matter of concern as the Church watches closely for updates on his recovery.
