The brief statement is similar to Sunday's when the Vatican Press Office conveyed that the Pope's health seems stable, with slight, gradual improvements.

It was also noted that the overall clinical picture remains complex, prompting doctors to make cautious prognoses.

Pope Francis has been at the Gemelli Polyclinic for three weeks, where he is receiving treatment for bilateral pneumonia.

The Pope addressed the faithful

On Sunday, it was reported that the Holy Father is participating in the Lenten retreat of the Roman Curia via broadcast. The Pope is spiritually connecting with all participants.

Yesterday, Cardinal Czerny read a homily prepared by him for the Mass concluding the Jubilee of Volunteering, and the Pope's meditation for the Angelus prayer was published.
