Pope Francis: Oxygen Therapy Continues Only at Night

The non-invasive ventilation treatment for Pope Francis is gradually decreasing. The 88-year-old is now moving independently within his room at the ‘Agostino Gemelli’ hospital in Rome. As announced today (15.03.2025) by the Vatican, Pope Francis continues to receive high-flow oxygen during the night. Simultaneously, physiotherapy and breathing exercises are ongoing, with gradual improvement noted in the Pontiff’s response. The next written update on the health condition of the Argentine Pope is expected to be released next Tuesday, March 18. Additionally, the Sunday (16.03.2025) message from Francis to the faithful will be distributed via media outlets in written form.
