The Catholic Pontiff, Pope Francis has spent the 10th night in the Gemelli Hospital in Rome where he is being treated for double pneumonia.
According to a statement issued by the Holy See Press Office on Sunday evening, the Pontiff, though in a serious situation, he remains alive and also attended mass in the hospital with his doctors and nurses.

“The thrombocytopenia remains stable; however, some blood tests show early, mild renal insufficiency, which is currently under control,”
“High-flow oxygen therapy continues through nasal cannulas,” the Holy See statement read.
