VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - Pope Francis is suffering from bronchitis but plans to maintain his scheduled appointments in the coming days, the Vatican said on Thursday.
The pope, who told pilgrims at his general audience on Wednesday that he was suffering from a "strong cold", will hold meetings at the Vatican residence where he lives, said a statement.
