No. But if the question is ‘is he in danger of death’, the answer is ‘no’,” Sergio Alfieri told a press conference.Francis is being treated at Rome’s Gemelli hospital, where he was admitted on February 14 after struggling with breathing difficulties for several days. Double pneumonia is a serious infection that can inflame and scar both lungs, making it difficult to breathe.His medical team said the pope was able to get out of bed and sit in an armchair to do some work, but predicted that he would remain in hospital “at least” through the coming next week.Also Read: | Vatican work continues apace even with Pope Francis in hospitalAlfieri said that given the pope was 88, with prior health concerns, he was obviously a fragile patient.He added that the pope did not have sepsis, a potentially life-threatening condition when a body responds to an infection by harming its own tissue and organs.
