Pope Francis has cancelled a visit to a Roman hospital after falling ill again.
His health status is being questioned as the 77-year-old has had a series of conditions recently.
The Pontiff was due for a scheduled visit to Gemelli Hospital, but cancelled an hour after his expected arrival time. The Vatican’s official statement said the cancellation was because of an “unexpected indisposition.”
