Pope Francis, who is 88 years old, was originally hospitalized on Feb. 14 for bronchitis and was later diagnosed with bilateral pneumonia. He is still undergoing treatment at Rome's Gemelli Hospital.
"The polymicrobial infection, which arose on a picture of bronchiectasis and asthmatiforme bronchitis, and which required the use of antibiotic cortisone therapy, makes the therapeutic treatment more complex," the Vatican said in a statement on Wednesday.
