Pope may have bacterial pneumonia says doctor
Ailing Pope John Paul II was rushed to hospital for the second time in a month today and a medical expert suggested he is suffering from bacterial pneumonia – a serious illness in an 84-year-old man.
A Vatican official said John Paul had the same symptoms of the breathing crisis that sent him to Rome’s Gemelli Polyclinic on February 1 but that a medical bulletin would not be released until tomorrow
