Pope Francis had a peaceful night and is resting, Vatican says

VATICAN CITY (Reuters) – Pope Francis, who has been in hospital for just over two weeks fighting double pneumonia, had a peaceful night and is resting, the Vatican said on Saturday.

After days of a cautious optimism, the 88-year-old pontiff had a setback on Friday, suffering an “isolated breathing crisis” that required non-invasive, mechanical ventilation, the Vatican said.
