Due to a fresh bout of bronchitis, Pope Francis has decided to move his official meetings to his residence for the rest of the week.
“Due to a bronchitis that has affected him in recent days,” reads a communiqué from the Vatican press office, “and in order to continue his activity, on the days of Friday, February 7 and Saturday, February 8, Pope Francis’s audiences will be held in the Casa Santa Marta,” - the Vatican guesthouse where Pope Francis opted to reside after his election in 2013 instead of the papal apartments in the Apostolic Palace.
