Pope Francis is sick and there’s speculation that he might be infected with the coronavirus.
Pope Francis remained ill with an apparent cold on Friday — and canceled official audiences for a second day, Vatican officials announced.
The 83-year-old pontiff celebrated morning Mass as usual and greeted congregants at the end, the Vatican said. He planned to go on with his private meeting schedule, but opted to cancel his official audiences.
“The Holy Father celebrated Mass this morning and at the end, as usual, greeted the participants, but decided to postpone today’s official audiences,” spokesman Matteo Bruni said on Friday, the Vatican News reported.“The meetings on the agenda at Casa Santa Marta continue regularly.”
The Vatican has not said exactly what the pope came down with, but he appeared to have a cold as he coughed and blew his nose during Ash Wednesday Mass.
On Thursday, he nixed a penitential Mass, marking the start of Lent, that he’d planned to celebrate at the St. John Lateran basilica across town with Roman clergy, the Vatican said.
Meanwhile, the coronavirus outbreak continues to sweep through Italy — with 650 people infected and 17 killed. More than 400 of the cases occurred in the country’s northern Lombardy region.
I’m glad that he’s sick.
That’s because this Pope is a very evil individual. He has perverted the teachings of the Bible and has used his position as the head of the Catholic Church to promote policies opposed by the creator. He has promoted insane things like gay anal sex, weather hoaxes and mass immigration.
It would only be fitting for this horrible person to die of the coronavirus. If that were to happen, I would be very happy and laugh about it.
