For the past three days, Pope Francis has been continuing his therapies at Casa Santa Marta, where he chose to live after his election to the Papal Throne 12 years ago. Simultaneously, he continues to work. His convalescence is “different from hospitalization, and the difference in location is not a minor detail", Vatican sources note. The Pope continues the treatments prescribed at the Agostino Gemelli Polyclinic: "pharmacological treatment and respiratory and motor physiotherapy, therefore also of speech therapy", according to the Holy See Press Office, adding that he receives high-flow oxygen at night, while during the day, he alternates between high-flow oxygen and nasal cannula administration. Additionally, he concelebrates Mass in the chapel on the second floor of Casa Santa Marta, where he resides. Visits to his room, number 201, are reduced “to the minimum, only for his closest collaborators". The Pontiff has prepared a catechesis for today's General Audience, which will be provided in written form, while nothing has been decided for Sunday's Angelus, but it will most likely be the same as past Sundays, with a written text distributed. Nothing is known yet about his upcoming engagements, starting with Holy Week and Easter. As for visits from Heads of State, sources from the Vatican indicate that Polish President Andrzej Duda will be received on Thursday, most likely by the Secretary of State, Cardinal Pietro Parolin. Regarding the British royals' arrival on April 8, Parolin himself hoped that the Pope might "at least give him a greeting". Furthermore, according to what has been learned, the Pope "is no longer in danger of life," as confirmed by the doctors who chose to discharge him from
the Gemelli Polyclinic, where he had been hospitalized for 38 days due to bilateral pneumonia.
