Pope Francis Reappears Using Nasal Oxygen Tubes

In the latest medical bulletin, it is confirmed that the Holy Father has resumed the use of respiratory assistance devices as part of his recovery

In a new development regarding the health of the supreme pontiff, the Vatican has reported that Pope Francis has resumed using nasal tubes to receive oxygen, as part of his recovery process after a series of intense pastoral and physical commitments.

According to the medical bulletin issued by the Vatican authorities, this measure is preventive and is part of the careful monitoring that doctors maintain on their state of health. Although no additional details have been specified, it is noted that the Holy Father continues to show a positive attitude and is complying with all medical recommendations.


This temporary use of supplemental oxygen does not seem to be a cause for alarm, as it is part of the usual monitoring of his respiratory condition, particularly considering his previous history of lung problems. Specialists have stressed that this type of support is common in people requiring extra attention to stabilize their oxygen levels.

The Vatican’s official message concludes by stressing that Pope Francis continues to carry out his pastoral agenda as normal, adapting his activities as necessary to preserve his well-being. The prayers and good wishes of the global Catholic community remain a fundamental pillar in his recovery.
