At around 7:30 p.m. on Thursday evening, February 20, the Holy See Press Office released a new medical report on the health of Pope Francis, who has been in the A. Gemelli University Hospital since February 14.

The brief communiqué highlights a slight improvement in the clinical condition of the pontiff, who has not presented fever during his fourth day of hospitalization.

The communiqué also states that the "hemodynamic parameters continue to be stable" and the Holy Father "received the Eucharist" and was subsequently able to work from the hospital.

The brief communiqué joins the message that, early in the morning, the communication team sent to reporters to emphasize that the pontiff had spent a good night and had breakfast sitting in an armchair.
