Vatican says Pope Francis is 'out of danger of death'

Pope Francis is not considered to be in imminent danger from the infection he arrived to the hospital with, a Vatican source said on Monday.

Francis was admitted to Rome’s Gemelli Hospital in mid-February and has been battling pneumonia in both of his lungs.

For the first time since his hospitalization, the Vatican said doctors have decided to lift the prognosis, citing improvements in his clinical situation.

But the pope’s clinical condition is still “complex” and he is not entirely out of danger, the source said.
