Shafaqna English- Pope Francis has canceled an audience scheduled for Saturday (24 Feb. 2024) because of mild flu, the Vatican said in a statement.
The 87-year-old pontiff holds regular audiences with Vatican’s officials on Saturdays as well as private meetings.
The pope has suffered repeated health problems in recent months and was forced to cancel a planned trip to a COP28 climate meeting in Dubai in December because of the effects of influenza and lung inflammation.
