Pope Francis in critical condition after respiratory crisis, Vatican says

Pope Francis is in critical condition due to a long asthmatic respiratory crisis that requires high flows of oxygen, according to the Vatican.
He has been hospitalized for a week with pneumonia and a complex lung infection, which remains touch-and-go, with a reserved prognosis.
Doctors are particularly concerned about the risk of sepsis developing as a serious infection complication, although there is no evidence of sepsis as of Friday.
Despite the serious situation, Pope Francis remains alert but is experiencing more pain than the previous day.
