Pope Francis was found to have pneumonia in both his lungs Tuesday and his condition remains "complex," the Vatican said in a health update on the 88-year-old pontiff who was hospitalized last week. The big picture: The pope was admitted to Rome's Agostino Gemelli Hospital on Friday with bronchitis symptoms and his treatment was changed after doctors found he had a polymicrobial infection of the respiratory tract.

Pope Francis has shown “a slight improvement” in his health while being hospitalized for double pneumonia, but he is still considered to be in critical condition. The 88-year-old has spent the last 10 days in a Rome hospital.

Pope Francis has the onset of double pneumonia, the Vatican said on Tuesday, complicating treatment for the 88-year pontiff and indicating a further deterioration in his fragile health.
