Pope Francis was “progressively improving” and had started to do some work from his bedside, the Vatican said on Thursday. The Pope was admitted to hospital with a respiratory infection. “His Holiness Pope Francis rested well during the night. His clinical picture is gradually improving and he is continuing his planned treatment,” a statement said.
