VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - Pope Francis, in hospital for double pneumonia, is improving slightly, has no fever, and his blood analyses are stable, the Vatican said on Thursday.

The 88-year-old pontiff is undergoing treatment at Rome's Gemelli hospital, where he was admitted on February 14 after struggling with breathing difficulties for several days.
